Minnesota (11-3) won its fourth straight game, while Dallas (3-10) lost its eighth in a row.

Minnesota pulled away early in the fourth quarter by making its first five shots to take a 76-65 lead after an 8-0 run. Hiedeman's fast-break layup, following Alanna Smith's block, extended Minnesota's lead an 84-74 lead.

Napheesa Collier added 16 points, Alanna Smith had 12 points, nine rebounds and five steals, and Dorka Juhasz scored 11 for Minnesota.

Collier, who was coming off a 30-point performance on Friday, started 1 for 9 from the field before her second make gave Minnesota a 39-37 lead late in the second quarter. Collier finished 5 of 17 from the field.

Sevgi Uzun and Maddy Siegrist each scored 17 points for Dallas. Monique Billings had 15 points, 10 rebounds and nine assists.

Jacy Sheldon made a 3-pointer early in the third to give Dallas its first lead at 48-47.

It was Minnesota's first home game on a Monday since Sept. 17, 2012.
