MINNEAPOLIS — Lynx coach Cheryl Reeve had a savage message for Emma Meesseman after the Belgium star recently committed to the Liberty.

Asked after Tuesday’s practice about Meesseman’s decision, Reeve didn’t mince her words.

“She made the wrong choice,” she said bluntly.

The Lynx, Liberty and Mercury were the final three teams in on the Meesseman sweepstakes earlier this month.

Minnesota associate coach Eric Thibault, who knew Meesseman from her time with the Mystics, led the Lynx’s pursuit of the best available free agent.

Meesseman, though, ultimately chose the Liberty.

Meesseman still hasn’t officially signed with the Liberty yet as New York continues to work through the visa application process. It’s unclear at this point when she might join the defending champions.

Liberty general manager Jonathan Kolb didn’t want to speak on Meesseman’s behalf after a recent shootaround as to why she decided to make her WNBA return after a 2 ½-year hiatus.

But he did share that Meesseman had one clear objective this season.

“From my purview, she wants to win,” Kolb said. “She wants to win a championship. That’s her No. 1 goal.”

Mercury coach Nate Tibbetts supported Meesseman’s decision when asked about her commitment to New York earlier this month.

“Emma’s a great player. She’s going to be a really good fit here,” Tibbetts said before the Mercury’s July 25 loss in Brooklyn. “There were two or three teams involved. We were lucky enough to be one of them. And I think she made a good choice. She’s familiar with Sandy [Brondello] and played with [Breanna Stewart] and she’s a great player and she’s going to help them.”

Reeve was a little more forthcoming with her answer.

The Lynx and Liberty — the Nos. 1 and 2 teams in the league, respectively, this season — are set to square off Wednesday in what will be their first meeting since New York beat Minnesota last October to clinch the 2024 WNBA title.

It will be their first of four games in the next three weeks.
