The Liberty (21-5) keep the top spot of the league at 21-5 as they head into a month-long break for the Olympics.
As they limped into the fourth quarter tied Tuesday night, the Liberty looked like a team ready for a monthlong break.
Thanks to Sabrina Ionescu, they’ll have nice memories of their last moments of game action until they play again.Sabrina Ionescu, who scored 30 points, looks to make a move on DiJonai Carrington during the Liberty’s 82-74 win over the Sun.Ionescu led the Liberty to an 82-74 victory over the WNBA’s second-best team with 30 points, including a 3-pointer that broke a 63-63 tie to open the final period.
After a hot first quarter that saw the Liberty hold 66 percent shooting from the three-point line, things cooled down, seeing the Liberty scoreless for nearly the last three minutes of the second quarter.With under seven minutes to go, Ionescu was called for a traveling violation — her fifth of the night — that led to a layup from Bioanna Jones.
Towards the end of the quarter, Vandersloot had another foul to lead Carrington to the charity stripe followed by a turnover from Jonquel Jones.The Liberty gave away 21 turnovers on the night that yielded 21 points for the Sun.
