Wings overcome third quarter woes and dominate in transition in win vs. Sparks
Dallas Wings guard Arike Ogunbowale looks to set up an offensive play during first half action against the LA Sparks. The two teams played their WNBA game at College Park Center on the campus of UT-Arlington on June 19, 2022.ARLINGTON — The start of third quarters had not been kind to the Wings during the first four games of their five-game homestand as opponents had combined to outscore Dallas by 30 points.
“Our third quarter, we’ve been lagging a little bit,” Arike Ogunbowale said. “Even though it wasn’t great, we still kept the intensity and tried to get the lead early so that we can build a little lead and be more comfortable in the fourth quarter. That’s what we did.” The Wings turned defense into offense in two main ways. Dallas played tight defense and worked to always have a hand in the passing lanes. The strategy worked and forced Los Angeles into 17 turnovers.
The second quarter was the Ogunbowale show as she scored 15 points in the quarter, doing particular damage from the left wing. She hit three 3-pointers in the quarter, all from that spot on the court. One came off a dribble handoff, one was a catch-and-shoot 3-pointer and one was an off-the-dribble pull-up jumper.
When Liz Cambage picked up her fourth foul early in the third quarter, Dallas took advantage of her absence to extend its lead into double figures. The Sparks never got the lead back to single digits.
