Sophia Young dropped a three-pointer to break a tie with 0:00.3 remaining, winning the game for San Antonio and covering the 2-point spread.

The Silver Stars trailed by 10 to begin the fourth quarter, but over the next 8:36, the Storm shot 1-for-8 while committing seven turnovers, and the Stars pulled ahead 69-64. 

Sue Bird made an assist plus a three-pointer to get the Storm with 69-71, and then a Tanisha Wright shot in the lane tied the game at 71 before Young’s winner at the buzzer.

In their last eight home games, the Stars are 5-3 SU and ATS, where the wins and losses parallel — when the Stars win at home, they cover. They also hit four overs in those five wins.
