NEW YORK -- Jonquel Jones scored 27 points and Breanna Stewart added 20 to help the New York Liberty defeat the Las Vegas Aces 87-73 on Sunday in the WNBA Finals and force a Game 4.

New York struggled in the first two games against the Aces in Las Vegas, but the Liberty found their shooting touch in Game 3 behind Jones, who hit four of the team's 13 3-pointers.

It was the Liberty's first win in the WNBA Finals since Teresa Weatherspoon's half-court shot in Game 2 against Houston in 1999.
