Liberty beat Lynx
The largest-ever Lynx audience of 19,521 watched in disbelief as the Liberty defeated Minnesota 80–77 at Target Center in Minnesota.
In Game 4, which takes place on Friday night, New York, who has won two straight after overturning a 15-point hole, will have their first opportunity to capture the WNBA title.
Multiple 15-point comebacks have occurred in a WNBA Finals series for the first time; Minnesota overcame an 18-point deficit to win Game 1 in overtime before New York won Game 2.
A 15-point rally was spearheaded by Breanna Stewart, star player for Liberty, but Ionescu sank the game-winning basket.

Stewart contributed 30 points and 11 rebounds to the Liberty comeback.
With 22 points and nine rebounds, Collier led the Lynx; Kayla McBride, chipped in with 19 points while Courtney Williams finished with 12 points and 8 assists and Carleton scored 14.
