The Sky won their season-high third straight game. Chicago
(15-22) has seven games left in the regular season and is six
games behind Dallas for the eighth and final playoff spot.
The second-place Valkyries (25-11) are a game ahead of Las Vegas
and 1 1/2 games in front of Indiana.
The game was interrupted when multiple sex toys were thrown onto
the court in the third quarter. It is the second straight night
that a WNBA game was halted for the same reason. During
Atlanta’s 124-88 win over the Sparks in Los Angeles on Thursday
night, the game was stopped when a sex toy was tossed onto the
court.
Kaitlyn Chen made a 3-pointer and layup that gave Golden State a
70-67 lead with 46.3 seconds left. Taylor tied it with a
straightaway 3 about 12 seconds later and Chen missed a floater
to set up the winner.
Taylor dribbled down the clock and hit a side-step 3-pointer
over Veronica Burton.
Natasha Cloud made 5 of 5 from 3-point range and led Chicago
with 17 points. Kamilla Cardoso had 14 points and 10 rebounds
and Taylor also scored 14.
Laeticia Amihere scored a career-high 16 points on 7-of-7
shooting, Janelle Salaun added 13 points and Tiffany Hayes had
10. Burton, the only Valkyries started to reach double figures,
scored 11.
Golden State's Gabby Williams left the game about 2 1/2 minutes
into the second half and did not return. The All-Star finished
with two points on 0-for-6 shooting in 14 minutes.
