Sacramento showed what they could do without DeMya Walker and took over first place in the West with a solid 74-57 win over San Antonio.

The Monarchs frustrated the Silver Stars with their trademark defense and Rebbekah Brunson stepped up in Walker's absence and finished with 21 points and 9 boards.

But Brunson said it was about the whole team. "Unfortunately for other teams, if they lose of DeMya’s caliber they are going to be out of luck. We have a lot of players that are going to work hard and we're going to do the same things as when she was with us.”
