WNBA ROUNDUP \ Tuesday’s games

Liberty 79, Mystics 69

NEW YORK — Shameka Christon scored 16 points to lead the New York Liberty over the winless Washington Mystics. Cathrine Kraayeveld and Janel McCarville had 11 points each and Barbara Farris added 10 to help New York (6-2) snap a two-game losing streak. DeLisha Milton-Jones had 20 points and nine rebounds and Alana Beard added 17 points for Washington (0-8), off to the worst start in franchise history. Farris was fouled off the ball while Thorn shot a 3 and completed the four-point play with 7:13 left in the game to give the Liberty a 73-51 lead, their biggest advantage of the game. New York came in shooting a league-best 46 percent on 3s, but finished 5-for-20 against the Mystics. After opening season with six of eight at home, the Liberty play seven of the next nine on the road — starting with a contest at Chicago on Friday night.
