We’re doing this in reverse.
Trailing by as much as 30 in the third quarter, the Lynx rallied to cut the Sparks lead to just eight points in the final minutes of the game. Lexie Brown scored 19 of her game-high 20 points in the final 17 minutes of a furious comeback. Minnesota outscored Los Angeles 27-13 in the final frame. The fourth quarter was an entirely different experience from the three that preceded it.
Unfortunately for the Lynx, game was decided before the fourth quarter even began. Minnesota was absolutely dominated by the Sparks in the first three quarters Tuesday night.
