Over the years, the Sparks have become quite familiar with watching Chelsea Gray take over in the fourth quarter of games, delivering her teams wins down the stretch.
It had to be a strange feeling to watch Gray perform the same feat in a different uniform against Los Angeles. But that’s precisely what the All-Star point guard — headed to her first Olympics this month — did Friday.
After the Sparks took a 55-54 lead in the fourth quarter with 5:33 to play, their first lead since 3-2 in the first, Gray took control. She made a pull-up jumper to tie the game, zipped a pass to A’ja Wilson to earn two free throws, then made another short jumper in semi-transition.
