Alright, guys, so, picture this: I wanted to catch the Sun versus Lynx Game 5 the other day, right? Let me tell you, it wasn’t as straightforward as I thought it’d be. First off, I had to figure out where this thing was even being broadcast. Turns out, it was on ESPN2. Okay, cool. But here’s the thing – I’m not much of a cable guy, you know? More of a streaming kind of dude.

So, I did what any self-respecting person of the 21st century would do – I started looking into streaming options. I’ve heard about YouTubeTV and FuboTV, and honestly, I even saw something about Paramount+. You’d think with all these services, it’d be a piece of cake, right? Wrong! It took a bit of digging, but I finally managed to get it sorted. Turns out, for this game, sticking with something that had ESPN2 was the way to go. I ended up going with one of those, set it up, and boom, I was ready for some basketball.
Now, let’s talk about the game itself for a second. The whole Sun-Lynx series? Man, it was intense! Super physical, a bit chippy even, from what I could tell. You could feel the tension through the screen, you know? Everyone was saying Game 5 was going to be even more intense, with both teams leaving it all on the court. And let me tell you, they weren’t wrong.
- First off, I checked for the broadcasting channel which was ESPN2.
- Then I explored streaming apps like YouTubeTV, FuboTV, and even Paramount+.
- Picked a service with ESPN2 for this specific game.
- Got all set up and ready to go.
- Watched the game, and boy, was it a nail-biter!
From what I gathered, this was part of the WNBA playoffs semifinals, which, no wonder it was so heated. It was the Minnesota Lynx hosting the Connecticut Sun. I also saw some folks talking about live streaming it on ESPN3 or the ESPN app. It seems there were a lot of ways to catch it, depending on where you were and what you had access to. I even saw something about local broadcasts on regional sports networks. It’s like, the WNBA was everywhere for this game!
In the end, I got to watch the game, and it was totally worth the little bit of hassle. I mean, this is the WNBA Finals we’re talking about! It was intense, it was exciting, and honestly, I’m already looking forward to the next one.
