Nneka Ogwumike drained a buzzer-beater three to seal a dramatic 98-97 Sparks victory over the New York Liberty, rallying from a 17-point deficit in a historic rematch of the first-ever WNBA game. With Ogwumike scoring a game-high 24 and all starters in double figures, the Sparks overcame injuries—including missing Cameron Brink—but got Kelsey Plum back, delivering 12 points and 7 assists. Coach Lynne Roberts praised her team’s grit against a stacked Liberty squad. The game also honored WNBA pioneers at halftime, with a performance by Warren G reigniting the Sparks’ energy. The win, against the Eastern Conference’s 2 team, showcased the league’s enduring spirit and the Sparks’ relentless fight. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
