ARLINGTON, Texas (AP) Leila Lacan had 22 points, Marina Mabrey scored 18 points, including two key free throws with 16.6 seconds left, and the Connecticut Sun<\/a> beat the Dallas Wings<\/a> 101-95 on Wednesday night for their highest scoring game this season.<\/p>\n Dallas played without No. 1 draft pick Paige Bueckers, who was a late scratch from the lineup due to an illness.<\/p>\n Tina Charles also scored 18 points for Connecticut, (10-28) which won on the road for just fourth time this season in 20 tries.<\/p>\n Aneesah Morrow finished with 11 points and 11 rebounds. Saniya Rivers added 11 points.<\/p>\n Aziaha James led Dallas (9-30) with 22 points. Myisha Hines-Allen scored a career-high 18 points and Maddy Siegrist added 15 points. Arike Ogunbowale (right knee) was also out of the Dallas lineup.<\/p>\n Bria Hartley made a basket with 7:31 left in the fourth quarter to give Connecticut an 89-77 lead. But the Sun went more than five minutes without scoring and did not make another field goal until the closing seconds.<\/p>\n Mabrey was called for a lane violation with 27.5 seconds left, leading to a made free throw by Amy Okonkwo to get Dallas within 95-92. Charles answered with a hook shot in the lane to end Connecticut’s field-goal drought.<\/p>\n Mabrey and Charles combined to go 4 for 4 at the free-throw line down the stretch to seal it.<\/p>\n The Wings dropped to 5-16 at home this season.<\/p>\n —<\/p>\n AP WNBA: https:\/\/apnews.com\/hub\/wnba-basketball<\/p>\n \n Copyright 2025 STATS LLC and Associated Press.
