Arike Ogunbowale sets all-time WNBA playoff record as Dallas Wings force Game 3 against Valkyries

Arike Ogunbowale delivered a legendary postseason performance by dropping 45 points to lead the Dallas Wings to a 108-100 overtime victory over the Golden State Valkyries, forcing a decisive Game 3. Her incredible night included sinking a clutch shot with just four seconds remaining in regulation to extend the contest, alongside seven rebounds, four assists, and three steals while shooting over 50 percent from the field.

With this historic scoring output, the 29-year-old guard surpassed the previous WNBA playoff single-game scoring record of 42 points that Angel McCoughtry had held since 2010. Overcoming the league's top-ranked defense in an elimination scenario, Ogunbowale kept her squad alive and secured a chance to advance further into the postseason.
