Sykes scores 25, Sparks hold off Wings 93-91 in wild ending

Sykes made two free throws with 18.2 seconds left for a five-point lead but Isabelle Harrison sank a 3-pointer to get Dallas within 93-91 with 5.5 remaining. Sykes was called for an offensive foul on the inbounds play, and after a timeout Arike Ogunbowale drove to the basket and was fouled with 0.8 left. She missed the first free throws and was called for a violation on the second.

Ogunbowale went over and kicked the scorer's table out of frustration and Los Angeles missed the technical free throw to end it.

Liz Cambage added 19 points, eight rebounds and six assists for Los Angeles (5-6). Katie Lou Samuelson scored 13.

Los Angeles scored the opening five points and led throughout until 6:11 remaining in the fourth quarter when Marina Mabrey made a layup in the lane to give Dallas a 79-78 advantage. Los Angeles went ahead 88-83 with three minutes left and didn’t score again until Cambage converted a three-point play with 36 seconds left.

Harrison had 20 points and eight rebounds for Dallas (5-4). Mabrey and Arike Ogunbowale each scored 16.

Brooklyn Nets' stat Kevin Durant sat courtside.
