WNBA Power Rankings: Lynx and rookie Dorka Juhasz make history, Liberty remain No. 1 ahead of Aces
Juhasz has helped the Lynx become the second team in WNBA history to make the playoffs after starting 0-6
By Jack Maloney • 6 min readIn the last 20 years, there have been 20 instances of a rookie recording a game with at least 10 points, 10 rebounds and five assists. Eighteen of them have come from a top-six draft pick. The other two both came last week from Minnesota Lynx forward Dorka Juhasz, a second-round pick in the 2023 WNBA Draft.
Juhasz, who went No. 16 overall, was a bit of an afterthought on draft night because the Lynx also had the No. 2 pick and added Diamond Miller. But Juhasz has slowly emerged as a key figure for this team, and one the most impactful players of this rookie class. Though not much of a scoring threat, she's efficient when she does get looks and contributes in other ways.
Despite playing limited minutes early on, she's averaging 6.1 points on 47.6% shooting, 6.3 rebounds and 2.6 assists per game. Among rookies she's fourth in scoring, fourth in field goal percentage, second in rebounding, tied for first in assists and second in blocks. Post-All-Star break, she's up to 7.6 points on 50% shooting, 8.2 rebounds and 3.3 assists.
Her playmaking as a big has been particularly impressive. The Lynx like to use her as a high-post hub, where she's able to use her size and instincts to run a handoff game or hit cutters.
