Back-to-back threes. Rookie history. 🎯 Sydney Taylor finished with 14 PTS and 4 3PM, first tying the game from deep bef Via @WNBA on X

What happened: Sydney Taylor hit consecutive threes, tying the game before converting again with 0.6 seconds left. The rookie became the first in league history with multiple game-winners inside the final five seconds.

Why it matters: The milestone separates Taylor from every previous WNBA rookie in late-game shotmaking. It also extends a season in which she entered Friday averaging 14.5 points.

By the numbers: Taylor's four 3-pointers produced 12 of her 14 points, accounting for 85.7% of her scoring.

What to watch: Taylor's next late-game opportunity will put her newly established rookie record back in focus.
