NEW YORK (AP) \u2014 Minnesota coach Cheryl Reeve will have to wait at least another game to break the record for most regular-season victories in WNBA history.<\/p>\n

The Lynx lost in her first attempt on Friday night in a 99-86<\/a> defeat to New York. The next chance will come Monday when Minnesota hosts Connecticut. That game is on the 13th anniversary, to the day, that Mike Thibault broke Van Chancellor’s record for most career regular-season wins.<\/p>\n
