Henry hits go-ahead, Atlanta beats Los Angeles 76-72
Associated Press
LOS
ANGELES -- Angel McCoughtry scored 22 points, Aneika Henry made the
go-ahead basket with 29 seconds left and Atlanta beat the Los Angeles
Sparks 76-72 on Thursday for the Dream's second road win.
Henry's
putback of a McCoughtry miss gave Atlanta a 74-72 lead -- the Dream's
first lead since it was 48-47. Los Angeles' Jantel Lavender missed a
long jumper with 2.7 seconds left and McCoughtry made two free throws to
seal it.
Henry finished with 16 points for Atlanta (7-8).
McCoughtry was just 5-of-20 shooting from the field but hit 12 of 13
free throws. Atlanta extended its winning streak against Los Angeles to
five straight games.
Lavender recorded her eighth double-double
with 20 points and 11 rebounds for Los Angeles (2-12). Nneka Ogwumike
added 19 points and six rebounds in front of an energetic crowd on camp
day. Los Angeles committed 16 turnovers, a day after having 21 against
Seattle.
Erin Phillips' 3-point play highlighted a 9-2 run for Los
Angeles to open the fourth quarter for a 65-54 lead. But Atlanta reeled
off a 15-5 burst to pull within 70-69 with 3:09 remaining.
