What happened: Frieda Buhner missed a 25-foot three-point jump shot with 4:49 remaining in the third quarter. The score at the time of the attempt stood at 46-53. The miss came during live regular-season WNBA action on May 15, 2026.

Why it matters: Made threes from distance shift in-game scoring runs and live betting totals, particularly when the trailing side is trying to close a single-possession deficit. A 25-foot attempt this deep into the third quarter signals an offense reaching for higher-variance looks rather than working the ball inside. The seven-point gap remains within one stop-and-score swing, keeping the outcome in play.

What to watch: Watch whether Buhner sees another perimeter look on the next offensive set and how the trailing side balances paint touches with three-point attempts down the stretch of Q3.
