This caps off an amazing week for the Lynx, who clinched their third WNBA title in five years on Wednesday at home against the Indiana Fever, then were treated to a party and private concert by local legend Prince at Paisley Park.

Today's parade and celebration is a chance for the Lynx and their fans to thank each other for another amazing season.
