Today’s results:
The Dream ran past the Sparks, 91-74, snapping their road win streak and ending their quest for a WNBA best season start record.
The Lynx needed an OT to scrape by the Wings, 98-97.
The Storm rallied from 24 down, but lost to the Sky in the last second, 91-88. Elena Delle Donne had 35 points and 11 rebounds for Chicago, including the game winner. She also notched her 2,000th career point tonight, despite missing a large chunk of 2014 with Lyme Disease flare ups.
The Liberty used a balanced attack to defeat the Sun, 83-76.
Thoughts:
– I know I’ve said this before, but the Sparks should upgrade some of those bench players.
– It is driving Lynx fans crazy how well Los Angeles is doing this year.
– The Storm are looking promising, and tonight’s 24-point comeback should give them some more confidence. Really cool that Betty Lennox was at Key Arena to take in the action tonight.
