Game Recap
Atlanta held off New York 101–98 in overtime, a thriller that required an extra frame after the teams combined for 199 points—28.5 points over the 170.5 market total. DAGGER's pregame over call cashed decisively.
The game's arc reflected a high-octane first half that nearly decided it alone. Combined scoring jumped to 52 in the first quarter, then accelerated further to 58 in the second, giving both teams 110 combined points by halftime. That frantic pace evaporated after the break. The second half from regulation collapsed to just 66 combined points across two quarters—39 in the third, 27 in the fourth—leaving the contest tied and forcing overtime, where 23 more combined points were scored before Atlanta sealed it.
Breanna Stewart led New York with 35 points, 11 rebounds, and 6 assists, while Jonquel Jones added 21 points and 8 rebounds. For Atlanta, Jordin Canada and Angel Reese both posted 23 points; Canada distributed 8 assists while Reese grabbed 7 boards. Rhyne Howard chipped in 18 points and 7 rebounds. The Liberty had surrendered 81.3 points per game over their last 10, but Atlanta's 91.4 scoring average proved just enough in the tightest of margins.
