UConn legend Maya Moore busts a move toward the hoop Sunday night, but

the Connecticut Sun came away with an 93-64 victory over the Lynx.

MINNEAPOLIS— After a one-game homestand—a 91-87 win over Diana Taurasi and the Phoenix Mercury on Friday night—it was back on the road for the Connecticut Sun on Sunday night. But the road warriors were more than up to the task as they stopped the Minnesota Lynx 83-64 before 9.234 fans at the Target Center.





The Sun, who led the contest at every turn, dominated inside and outside. On the inside, the Sun out-rebounded the home team by a 41-27 margin, and turned 13 offensive boards into 17 second-chance points. From the outside, Connecticut poured in 12 three-pointers compared to just four for the Lynx.





Former UConn star Morgan Tuck led six players in double figures with 15 points, tying her career-​high with four made threes. Minnesota native Rachel Banham celebrated her 25th birthday with 11 points, including three made threes.





Jonquel Jones (12 points) and Shekinna Stricklen (10 points) each had two made threes while Jasmine Thomas (11 points, four assists, four rebounds) added one three. Courtney Williams also reached double figures, finishing with 10 points and eight rebounds.





Connecticut outscored the Lynx by a combined 43-28 in the second and third quarters, when it took firm control of the game.





A pair of three-pointers by Tuck sparked a 14-3 run to start the fourth quarter, and Banham gave Connecticut its biggest lead with a jumper that made it 82-51 with 5:26 left.





The rest was a mere formality.





The Sun outscored the Lynx 14-0 in fast-break points, and are now 2-0 against the defending champs in 2018.





With the win, the Sun, who have won two straight, improve to 12-10, while the Lynx, who have dropped two straight, fall to 12-10. The teams are in a virtual tie for the 7th and 8th spots—with eight teams qualifying for the postseason.





The Sun return home to host the Atlanta Dream tonight. Tip-off at the Mohegan Sun Arena is at 7 p.m.
