Sylvia Fowles scored a game-high 13 points
and added 11 rebounds, as the Chicago Sky held on for a 61-59 win over the
Washington Mystics at the Verizon Center.
Dominique Canty and Jia Perkins went for 11 and 10 points, respectively, for
Chicago, which has won three straight and five of its last seven overall.
Crystal Langhorne ended with a team-high 12 points and nine boards for the
Mystics, who have dropped two in a row after winning eight of their
previous nine.
Trailing 61-58, Lindsey Harding was fouled from beyond the arc with two
seconds to play and missed the first free throw before making the second. She
then missed the third intentionally and Katie Smith's three-point attempt was
off the mark, giving Chicago the narrow victory.
