- Rookie Olivia Miles finished with 17 points, six rebounds and six assists and helped seal the game during a decisive 31-16 third-quarter run.
- Chicago fell to 3-5 and 0-4 at home after converting just 5 of 30 three-point attempts while playing without rookie Gabriela Jaquez and still coping with Rickea Jackson’s season-ending injury.
