Diana Taurasi, at 42, led the Phoenix Mercury to an 86-68 victory over the Chicago Sky, becoming the oldest player in NBA/WNBA history to score at least 20 points and 5 assists with zero turnovers in a single game. Taurasi's performance was complemented by Brittney Griner and Monique Billings, who also made significant contributions. Despite rookie Angel Reese's double-double efforts, including a career-high 20 rebounds, the Sky fell to the Mercury. The Mercury's win came after a strong start, building a significant lead in the first quarter and maintaining it throughout the game. Sheryl Swoopes has continued to criticize Caitlin Clark despite her record-breaking performances, instead praising Reese for her consistent strong performances for the Sky.
