A Minnesota balloon company may have leaked news about Nneka Ogwumike potentially joining the Lynx, sharing a 'Welcome Nneka' balloon arrangement before deleting the video. The situation raises questions about whether she is signing or just visiting during WNBA free agency.
Did a Minnesota balloon company spoil big news regarding the Minnesota Lynx and veteran forward Nneka Ogwumike?
As free agency gets started this week in the WNBA, a curious video surfaced on Wednesday seemingly confirming at least interest from one of the league's top teams in one of its top free agents.
Minnesota-based balloon company Amazing Balloons seemingly shared and deleted an Instagram video of a "Welcome Nneka" balloon arrangement in one of the Lynx's practice gyms.
We're not sure if Ogwumike is officially signing with the Lynx or is just taking a free agency visit, but this formal of a balloon welcome would signal something pretty formal we'd bet. The fact that you can't find this video anymore on the company's Instagram page makes us wonder if they, er, accidentally let this news... leak.
Again, we have no idea what this means, but it sure is curious as the free agency negotiating window opens for the WNBA on Wednesday. Perhaps the Lynx are about to land one of the best players available.
