Los Angeles Sparks 84 - Detroit Shock 81- The Sparks stopped the Shock from coming back to win. However, the big story happened in the final seconds of the game. After Shock star Cheryl Ford fouled Sparks star Candace Parker, Parker got tangled with Shock forward Plenette Pierson, which started a scuffle for both sides. In the scuffle, Shock assistant coach Rick Mahorn reportedly knocked down Sparks center Lisa Leslie.
Mahorn left the bench to play peacemaker and the contact with Leslie appeared to be accidental, I can't say with certainty. Mahorn, Parker, Pierson and Delisha Milton-Jones were all ejected from the game. This is without a doubt a serious matter that will be dealt with. Suspensions will be handed down and from the sounds of it, a few of the players in last nights game will most likely be done until after the Olympics.
Here's the video for you to judge for yourself.
Houston Comets 94 - Phoenix Mercury 92- Believe it or not, there were other games going on last night. Diana Taurasi's 31 points weren't enough for the Mercury to get past the Comets. Tina Thompson led the Comets with 19 points.
Seattle Storm 76 - Minnesota Lynx 73- Sue Bird scored 22 points for the Storm, who have won their fourth game on the road this season. Charde Houston scored 16 points off the bench for the Lynx. The Storm are now tied with the San Antonio Silver Stars for first place in the Western Conference.
