What happened: Natasha Howard converted a one-foot floater during her 2-for-3 start.

Why it matters: Three attempts remain too small a sample to establish a game-long trend. Her shooting efficiency through the remaining minutes will carry more weight.

By the numbers: Howard made 66.7% of her first three field-goal attempts.

What to watch: Watch whether Howard sustains that efficiency as her shot volume rises.
