Layshia Clarendon was fouled as she drove the lane with 0.3 seconds left Tuesday night, then calmly made both free throws to give the New York Liberty its first win in three weeks, as they beat the Chicago Sky 101-99 in the Bradenton “wubble.” The win was the Liberty’s second of the season and broke a seven game losing streak going back to August 7.
The Liberty, now 2-12 have been without No. 1 pick Sabrina Ionescu, who New York announced would not require surgery on her sprained ankle.
Rookie coach Walt Hopkins and the game’s two heroes, Clarendon and Amana Zahui B.
