Liberty 69, Sparks 68

NEW YORK — Janel McCarville’s layup with 6.4 seconds left lifted New York over Los Angeles.

McCarville led New York with 15 points and Shameka Christon added 13. Milton-Jones led the Sparks with 19 points and Leslie added 16 points and 13 rebounds.

Lynx 78, Silver Stars 68

MINNEAPOLIS — Seimone Augustus scored 20 points, Lindsey Harding added a season-high 13 for Minnesota. Playing without injured rookie Candice Wiggins, the Lynx (13-12) got their usual production from Augustus, who will join the U.S. Olympic team when the WNBA takes its one-month hiatus for the Beijing Games. Harding went 4-for-6 from the floor and was a perfect 4-for-4 from the line to help the Lynx. Sophia Young led San Antonio (17-9) with 21 points while Becky Hammon and Ann Wauters had 18 and 15 points, respectively.
