What happened: Arike Ogunbowale knocked down her third three-pointer of the night to move past Kara Lawson and her 584 career makes, claiming sole possession of 14th on the WNBA's all-time three-pointers made list. The milestone came in a tight game that was knotted at 81 inside the final 1:07.

Why it matters: Ogunbowale has been steadily ascending the league's shooting leaderboards, and clearing Lawson pushes her into rarefied company among the WNBA's most prolific perimeter scorers. Her long-range volume remains central to Dallas' offense, and each make tightens the gap to the next names ahead of her.

By the numbers: The bucket moved Ogunbowale past Kara Lawson's 584 career three-pointers into 14th all-time. It marked her third made three of the night, part of a late run with the score tied 81-81 and 1:07 to play. She recently passed Nicole Powell for 15th on the same list in June.

What to watch: Watch whether Ogunbowale closes out the tied game down the stretch and how quickly she chases down the next shooter ahead of her on the all-time list.
