Summary

Nneka Ogwumike hit a 26-foot three at the buzzer to lift the Sparks past the Liberty 98-97 — 30 years to the day after these same two teams played the first game in WNBA history. LA erased a 17-point hole short-handed (no Cameron Brink, a 1-for-7 night from Kelsey Plum) and Nneka scored 12 of the final 14. We break down the dagger AND pay homage to the women who built this league from nothing.
