Lynx 67, Sparks 61: Stole a W, Swept LA

Tuesday night was the third time these two storied rivals faced each other within a 10-day period. The visiting Minnesota Lynx narrowly edged out the Los Angeles Sparks in both the prior contests so you knew LA was going to come out firing. After being held to a season-low 8 points by the Lynx just four days ago, former league MVP, Nneka Ogwumike, came out guns blazing. In fact, it took her just one quarter of play to surpass that total, notching 11 of her team-high 20 points in all types of ways.
