The Dallas Wings are remaining in the loss column after falling 91-77 to the Los Angeles Sparks on Sunday afternoon inside Crypto.com Arena.

The Wings were playing from behind for most of the game, falling behind early in the first quarter. However, they were slowly chipping away at their deficit. After trailing by double digits for a good chunk of the first half, the Wings took a lead with less than 10 seconds in the third quarter.

However, the Sparks responded with a 3-pointer from Julie Allemand to re-take the lead going into the fourth quarter. Then, the Sparks went on a 19-0 run to take the game completely out of reach from the Wings.
