On September 11, the WNBA regular season continued, with the Dallas Wings losing 91-105 to the New York Liberty at home, suffering their fifth consecutive defeat.
Already out of playoff contention, the Wings seemed disinterested in the game and their defense was quite lax, giving the Liberty too many easy shooting opportunities. They conceded 58 points in the first half and were completely on the back foot afterwards. Fortunately, they managed to narrow the score margin somewhat by scoring consistently in the final moments, avoiding an overly embarrassing loss.
In this game, both teams engaged in an offensive showdown, but the Wings were still at a disadvantage. Although five players scored in double digits for the team, it still could not prevent the loss. This time, Ogwumike scored 23 points with 3 rebounds and 4 assists, Howard had 21 points, McCowan contributed 11 points, Sheldon added 10 points with 6 assists, Siegrist chipped in 10 points and 7 rebounds, and Sabally also had a comprehensive performance with 9 points, 7 rebounds, and 7 assists. The Wings’ offensive performance was good, but their defense was too lax, allowing the Liberty to score a season-high 105 points.
