The Liberty were down 17 points with under four minutes to go in the third quarter Tuesday night against the Dream. Breanna Stewart and Sabrina Ionescu knew the Liberty needed something, anything, to awaken their sleepy team and the home crowd.

Stewart delivered the ball to Ionescu, who bolted by, leaving Jordin Canada caught up on Stewart’s screen. In a blink, Ionescu pulled up from 22 feet out.
