Finished with 25 points 11-16 from the floor including 3-3 fromthe arc and 7 rebounds. Pretty typical night for her at Hilton! Was interviewed after the game and they mentioned Hilton Magic!

33 mins 25/7/3 11-16 3/3. A tall order replacing Sylvia Fowles and she did it in style!

It’s so awesome how great she’s doing and excelling . Isn’t it kinda interesting that Iowa hardly waiting 10 minutes for Gustafson to graduate and they retired her number and she barely is on a team from what I can see in the first 4 games she has zero points and played 2 minutes......

We watched the game last night, also. So great to see Bridget get the start and even better to see her excel and do so well! As mentioned, the post-game interview was like icing on the cake. Nice to see Iowa State get some acknowledgement in this league and have a Cyclone be a significant contributor on the court.

And that had everybody feeling good. “When great things happen to someone who’s as great a person as Bridget is?” Reeve said. “Unselfish, she’ll do anything for you. We told Syl, ‘We have your back.’ It’s even more satisfying, gratifying to see us put that type of effort together for Syl, and obviously, seeing Bridget having a monster game.”

A solid 7/4/1 line tonight in 24 minutes -- no start because Fowles is back. It seems she's the 6th or 7th player in the rotation, which is a really good place to be.

That was good for 5th in minutes for Lynx yesterday. Quite the turnaround from deep bench minute or two here and there. Hope she can keep it up. Was 3-3 last night.

And a big shot in crunch time to:

It was Brown who dribbled into the paint, then fed Bridget Carleton for a buzzer-beating three at the end of the third that put the Lynx up 11 entering the fourth. - Star Tribune​
