In Connecticut, the Sun continued their winning streak. Taj collected another double-double; Margo blocked four shots.

Detroit got more rebounds, but shot so poorly that it didn't matter. Coach Thibault: "If they don't get offensive rebounds, we win that game by 20.... You just can't let teams rebound like that, plain and simple."

In San Antonio, the Silver Stars built a first-half lead but couldn't keep it: the Stars had more rebounds, but kept taking outside shots, while Houston managed to get to the line. Wendy Palmer-Daniel says her team has a reputation for late-game collapse.
