The Liberty (17-7) dug themselves into an early 15-point hole after a disastrous first quarter but stormed back behind Ionescu’s four steals (tying a season high) and Natasha Cloud’s 22-point, 9-assist gem—only to watch Dearica Hamby sink the game-winning layup with 3.2 seconds left. Los Angeles (11-14) rode Chelsea Jackson’s 24 points and 10 assists from Julie Allemand to pull off the upset, handing New York just its second loss in 10 games.
