Overview
- Kamilla Cardoso scored 26 points and made 10 of 11 free throws to spark a 94-88 comeback over the Connecticut Sun on Thursday night.
- Cardoso is posting career highs with 14.5 points per game and a 59 percent field-goal rate, but she has persistent foul trouble with 97 personal fouls this season.
- DiJonai Carrington made her Sky debut after missing the first 27 games with a left-foot injury, playing 16 minutes on a restriction and finishing with nine points, three rebounds and one block.
- Chicago's bench outscored Connecticut 34-15 as the Sky forced 16 Sun turnovers, shifted to more zone defense and outscored the Sun 54-39 after halftime to complete the rally.
- The Sky sit 10-18 and are long shots for the playoffs, and their recent gains will be tested Saturday when they host the 20-8 Las Vegas Aces led by MVP-caliber A'ja Wilson.
