The Minnesota Lynx signed center Teaira McCowan to a contract on Thursday.

Terms of the deal were not disclosed by the Lynx.

McCowan, 29, came off the bench in 17 games last season with the Dallas Wings, averaging 5.6 points and 4.6 rebounds. She was waived by Dallas last August shortly after the Lynx acquired DiJonai Carrington from the Wings.

Listed at 6-foot-7, McCowan has averaged 10.7 points and 8.1 boards in 207 career games (131 starts) with the Indiana Fever (2019-21) and Wings. She was selected by the Fever with the third overall pick of the 2019 WNBA Draft.
