She now holds the WNBA record for the regular season wins quite the accomplishment.
A lot of accolades for her, of course, across her storied career.
Leah Bieno joins us now from the live center with last night's win that made it happen and how the team is celebrating.
Good morning, Leah.
Good morning. Yes, definitely worth celebrating.
The Lynx took on the Connecticut Sun last night and get a big win.
And that win was Reeves' 380th regular season victory, making her the winningest head coach in WNBA history, folks.
The record was previously held by former Sun and Washington Mystics coach Mike Thibault.
Here's a look at how the Lynx celebrated her and the win after the game last night.
It's a little startled. I don't know if she's expecting that.
Yes, the team celebrated the win and the Lynx showing off for her plenty of love on social media as well with posts saying good night from the goat.
After the game, Reeves talked about what it was like for the players to be part of that special moment.
It's not lost on me how important, you know, so many players in that locker room, you know, on the staff.
And, you know, just talking with Chuck, our trainer, so many people that have been on this tournament with me for so long.
You know, and even the new ones, like I told them, I mean, just to share it with them, it was incredibly meaningful.
And, you know, it's a moment in time, you know, it's one of those things.
But to do it with people that you really, really care about, you know, will give anything, you know, for the team to be successful.
Successful is right. She is the longest continuously tenured coach in WNBA history,
having been hired in Minnesota in 2010 following stints as an assistant in Charlotte, Cleveland, and Detroit.
She guided the Lynx to titles in 2011, 2013, 2015, 2017, as well as finals appearances at 2012, 2016, 2024.
We know we can probably expect even more from her, so huge congratulations.
We're lucky to have her here, aren't we, guys?
I know. I feel like we should, like, say what years they didn't win.
Leah, thank you.
