MINNEAPOLIS — Nneka
Ogwumike’s short jumper
with 3.1 seconds left gave the
Los Angeles Sparks a 77-76
victory over the defending
champion Minnesota Lynx for
their irst title
in 14 years in
Game 5
the deciding
game
of
the WNBA
Finals
on Los Angeles
Thursday
night.
T h e
league MVP
joined
her
Minnesota
teammates in
celebration
as a stunned
crowd slowly
iled out after inishing with
12 points and 12 rebounds.
Candace Parker had 28 points
and 12 rebounds to earn MVP
honors of the Finals. It was
Parker’s irst WNBA title.
“She’s been through so
much,” Ogwumike said of
Parker. “She’s probably the
most misunderstood person in
the league. I told her I wanted
her to get one. She had an
awesome game tonight. She’s
been our leader.”
Parker said she listened to
one of Pat Summitt’s speeches

before the game and that moti-
vated her. Her former coach at
Tennessee died in late June.
“She would have been
proud of our rebounding. It
came down to rebounding and
defense,” Parker said. “I could
hear her voice telling me to
keep going. She was deinitely
present tonight.”
Rebekkah Brunson made
one of two free throws with 23
seconds left to give the Lynx a
74-73 lead. Parker answered
with a layup on the other end
that Maya Moore countered
with a jumper with 15 seconds
remaining. Ogwumike’s irst
try for the win was off the mark,
but she worked her way over
to the loose ball for another
attempt that she coolly swished.
Lindsay Whalen’s inal shot
from just inside halfcourt wasn’t
close, setting off Los Angeles’
celebration as Parker and
Sparks owner Magic Johnson
embraced in a long hug.
Johnson spoke to the team
after the loss at home in Game
4 on Sunday. His presence in
Minnesota was all the more
impressive considering the
Dodgers, the other pro club
he’s invested in, were playing
baseball in Los Angeles at the
same time in Game 5 of their
National League championship
series.
“I told them the series wasn’t
over and that there was still a
Game 5 to be played. They had
to believe they could do it on
a tough home court. This team
Minnesota is tremendous,”
Johnson said. “We just beat
the champions so I give them a
lot of credit to. Our leaders led
us and we had a great coach
in Brian and they believed all
season long. I told them this
was their year. I wanted them
to do it for Candace Parker.
She deserves to be a champion.
Great group of ladies.”
Moore had 23 points and 11
assists for the Lynx, who fell
short of matching the WNBA
record of four championships.
The Houston Comets won four
straight titles from 1997-2000.
The Lynx played in the
inals for the ifth time in the
last six years. They won three.

GREEN BAY, Wis. — Aaron Rodgers set a
record. The Chicago Bears lost another quarterback.
After a slow start in the red zone, the Green Bay
Packers picked up the pace in the second half to
overpower their offensively-challenged NFC North
rivals.
Rodgers threw for 326 yards and three touch-
downs, Davante Adams and Ty Montgomery
emerged as playmakers in the
second half and Packers beat the
Bears 26-10 on Thursday night.
Rodgers was 39 of 56, setting
Chicago
a franchise mark for completions
in a game. It was the Packers’ irst
contest without injured running
back Eddie Lacy .
“A lot of moving parts, a very
satisfying victory at home,” coach
Green Bay
Mike McCarthy said.
The Packers (4-2) moved
effectively on short gains most of
the night, but couldn’t break into
the end zone until Adams caught the irst of his two
touchdown receptions with 9:11 left in the third
quarter for a 13-10 lead.
Rodgers and Adams combined again for a
4-yard score on the irst play of fourth quarter for
a 10-point lead.
The Bears (1-6) lost quarterback Brian Hoyer
to a broken left arm in the second quarter. With
Jay Cutler already out with a right thumb injury,
Chicago turned to third-stringer Matt Barkley.
An offense that was already 31st in the league in
scoring got worse. Barkley was 6 of 15 for 81 yards
and two interceptions.
