Sales had a breakout game and led the Sun past the Sting. She had a four-point play that amazed even herself. "It was a crucial point in the game and everything was going our way. You sort of get that feeling inside like, 'Wow.'"

Whalen was solid again, with 11 points and 5 assists. She and Nykesha are getting some good fast break chemistry going.

For Charlotte, Mazzante came off the bench, hit 3-for-4 from outside, and led the team with 15.
