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 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.
