Tina Thompson scored 23 points to become the WNBA's all-time scoring leader Sunday night in a 92-83 loss to the San Antonio Silver Stars. She surpassed Lisa Leslie's career total of 6,263 points.
Leslie, who played for Los Angeles for her entire career, retired last year.
Roneeka Hodges scored 19 points for the Silver Stars (11-17), who have won three of five. Becky Hammon had 18 points, eight rebounds and seven assists and Sophia Young added 16 points and 10 rebounds.
DeLisha Milton-Jones scored 21 points for the Sparks (10-18) and Ticha Penicheiro added 12 points, a season-high nine rebounds and eight assists.
Liberty 74, Lynx 72: At Minneapolis, Nicole Powell scored 21 points and Cappie Pondexter added 17 to help the Liberty extend their winning streak to six games with a victory over the Lynx.
Lindsay Whalen scored 18 points and Monica Wright added 16 for Minnesota. Rebekkah Brunson grabbed 18 rebounds for the Lynx (10-17) The victory was New York's 10th in its past 12 games as the Liberty (17-11) continues to close the gap on Atlanta and Indiana for the best record in the WNBA's Eastern Conference. The winning streak is New York's longest since 2004. The loss snaps a three-game winning streak for a Minnesota team that is battling for a playoff spot with Los Angeles and San Antonio.
Sun 76, Mystics 67: At Uncasville, Tina Charles had 17 points and 14 rebounds, setting a rookie record with her 18th double-double as the Sun preserved their playoff hopes with a win over the Mystics.
Asjha Jones also had 17 points and Sandrine Gruda added 12 as the Sun (14-14) pulled two games behind Washington (16-12) for the fourth and final playoff spot in the Eastern Conference. Connecticut also clinched the season series, giving the Sun a potential playoff tiebreaker.
Charles is one double-double short of the league record set by Natalie Williams in 2000.
Crystal Langhorne led the Mystics with 14 points, Lindsey Harding scored 12 and Monique Currie added 10.
Fever 104, Mercury 82: At Phoenix, Tamika Catchings scored 24 points and grabbed 10 rebounds to lead the Fever past the Mercury, putting Indiana atop the Eastern Conference with two weeks left in the regular season.
