Becky Hammon scored 22 points to lead the San Antonio Silver Stars to their 12th straight victory, 75-72 against the Washington Mystics on Tuesday night.
A look at the four first-round series in the WNBA playoffs, which start Thursday:
Sophia Young and Becky Hammon stepped up for playoff-bound San Antonio and ended Washington's lost season with another loss.
Becky Hammon scored 17 of her season-high 37 points in the fourth quarter and the San Antonio Silver Stars beat the Los Angeles Sparks 82-65 on Tuesday to clinch the West's final playoff berth.
The Washington Mystics opened the second half of the season Tuesday night against the visiting San Antonio Silver Stars with only one thought — to right a sinking ship that had them in last place in the the Eastern Conference with a 3-11 record.
There were the record number of first-time WNBA All-Stars, and a halftime ceremony honoring the best players in WNBA history. Indiana Fever guard Katie Douglas didn't fit into either category.
Lisa Leslie, Cynthia Cooper and Diana Taurasi lead the list selected as the WNBA's Top 15 players of all time.
Yelena Leuchanka scored 17 points and Yuliya Dureika added 15 to help Belarus upset top-seeded Russia 70-53 Friday in the quarterfinals of the women's basketball world championship.
Penny Taylor had 18 points, eight assists and five rebounds to lead the Phoenix Mercury over the San Antonio Silver Stars 103-87 on Friday night.
Becky Hammon scored 22 points to lead the San Antonio Silvers to a 101-85 victory over the Tulsa Shock on Friday night.
Entering yesterday's WNBA All-Star Game, Detroit's Cheryl Ford was thinking her left knee could use some rest and she might not play many minutes.
She added another 3 following a layup by Robinson to extend the Silver Stars' advantage to 47-37 with 5:23 left in the third.
"We just take what they give us," Hammon said. "And if they want to pay me a lot of attention, then I'm going to find my teammates. They did a great job of spacing themselves and knocking down shots. We're very good when people knock down shots."
