- Dallas Wings rallied from a 15-point fourth-quarter hole with a season-high 36 points in the final frame, completing the third-largest fourth-quarter comeback in franchise history (per ESPN Research) to beat the Chicago Sky 93-92.
- Li Yueru sank two free throws with 12.5 seconds remaining to give Dallas its first lead of the game, sealing the win after the Wings had trailed 71-57 entering the fourth.
- Paige Bueckers tallied 19 points, 8 assists, and 7 rebounds, scoring 10 of 11 Dallas points during one stretch of the rally and converting a four-point play with 30.6 seconds left to pull the Wings within one.
- Jessica Shepard produced 17 of her 21 points in the second half and added 8 rebounds, while rookie Azzi Fudd (13 points) and Arike Ogunbowale (12 points) helped Dallas (10-6) match its win total from all of last season.
- Kamilla Cardoso posted 26 points — one shy of her career high — and 9 rebounds for the Sky, but Chicago (4-11) absorbed its fifth straight loss and 10th defeat in 11 games despite jumping out to a 28-16 first-quarter lead behind a 20-0 paint scoring edge.
- Sydney Taylor added 18 points before fouling out, Skylar Diggins scored 14, and Natasha Cloud chipped in 10 for a Sky squad that was outscored by 19 in the decisive fourth quarter.
Why it matters: The win lifts Dallas to 10-6 and matches its entire 2025 win total, suggesting a real turnaround for a team that erased a 15-point deficit with a season-high 36-point fourth quarter. Chicago falls to 4-11 with a fifth straight loss and has now lost 10 of 11, a slide that includes surrendering a 14-point edge at home on the road in Arlington.
