The New York Liberty and Marine Johannès suffered a second loss in a row on Monday. After falling to Phoenix, New York gave in to Dallas (86-77), despite the 32 points of fullback Sabrina Ionescu, who thus becomes the first player in WNBA history to have achieved at least 500 points, 200 assists and 200 rebounds in a single season.
