What happened: Kayla McBride secured the rebound, retreated beyond the arc and made the ensuing 3-pointer. NBA TV carried Sunday’s MIN-ATL matchup.

Why it matters: The basket came three weeks after McBride set a WNBA record with 10 3-pointers in one game. She also led the league’s Aug. 27 Gravity rankings, which track defensive attention above expectation.

By the numbers: Aug. 9: WNBA-record 10 made 3-pointers in one game. Aug. 27: League-leading 16.4 weekly Gravity score.

What to watch: The final score and McBride’s complete shooting line will show how much the possession mattered.
