Two Camille Little 3-pointers helped the Sun close the first quarter knotted at 21-21, and Courtney Williams' layup early in the second put Connecticut on top 25-23. However, Moore triggered an 8-0 burst that gave Minnesota the lead for good and the Sun were later held scoreless over the final 3:22 of the half as Natasha Howard boosted the margin to 44-34 at intermission. Moore's jumper punctuated a 14-5 start to the third period that widened the lead to 19. Up 73-55 entering the fourth quarter, the Lynx grabbed their largest lead of the night when Lindsay Whalen's alley-oop pass to Moore made it 81-61 with 7:16 to play. Connecticut rallied to within 12 on two occasions but could get no closer down the stretch as the Lynx salvaged the finale of the three-game season series.

Minnesota led 24-21 after one quarter, and Fowles' layup capped a 15-3 uprising that stretched the margin to 41-28 with 3:44 to play in the second. The Mystics closed to within nine by halftime and a Stefanie Dolson trey made it 43-37 early in the third period. Tayler Hill's last-second steal and layup cut the Lynx' advantage to 55-51 entering the fourth and jumpers by Kahleah Copper and Leilani Mitchell pulled Washington even at 55-55 with 8:12 remaining. The Mystics stayed within one following a LaToya Sanders basket at the 1:47 mark, but Moore countered with a pair of free throws and the aforementioned jumper to push Minnesota's lead to 68-63 then added seven free throws in the waning moments to foil Washington's comeback bid. Lindsay Whalen put in nine points for Minnesota while Hill led the Mystics with 15 points, Mitchell tacked on 13 and Natasha Cloud had seven assists and six rebounds.
