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.
