Sparks Rally Past Liberty in Historic Comeback

Sparks Rally Past Liberty in Historic Comeback

Published 4 days, 5 hours ago
Description

The Los Angeles Sparks pulled off a jaw-dropping 98-97 comeback win over the New York Liberty on the very anniversary of their first-ever matchup — a game they lost back in 1997. Down by 17 in the third, Nneka Ogwumike exploded for 24 points, including a clutch three to tie it with 2 minutes left. She then calmly sank the game-winning shot from the wing as time expired, sealing the victory. Breanna Stewart’s late free throw couldn’t save the Liberty, who’ve now dropped two straight after an 8-game win streak. The Sparks, led by Ogwumike’s heroics and Rae Burrell’s 19 points, head to Toronto next, while the Liberty prepare for a big showdown against the Aces in the Commissioner’s Cup on June 30.
