What happened

Alex Fowler knocked down a 24-foot three-point jumper off an assist from Julie Vanloo with 1:47 remaining in the second quarter. The basket cut the deficit to five, with the score sitting at 32-37 at the time of the make.

Why it matters

The bucket continues a back-and-forth quarter where perimeter shooting has driven the run of play. Vanloo's playmaking out of the backcourt has set up scoring opportunities at the arc, keeping her side within striking distance heading toward halftime.

What to watch

Watch whether the Vanloo-Fowler pick-and-pop combination is featured again before halftime and whether the trailing side can close the gap before the break.
