With the crowd rocking for Game 3 in Minnesota, the Lynx jumped out to a massive lead early and led by as many as 15 points in the first half. However, the Liberty slowly and methodically worked their way back into the game and trailed by just a single point entering the fourth quarter.
The two squads traded leads down the stretch, ultimately resulting in a tied game with just under 10 seconds left in regulation and the Liberty with possession. Sabrina Ionescu dribbled near half court, lulling her defender to sleep before accelerating into a stepback three-pointer from just inside the logo that found the bottom of the net as the Target Center crowd went silent.
Minnesota was unable to get a quality shot off on the other end as the Liberty stole Game 3 and massively swung the series odds in their favor.
