The two players combined for 54 points and made 22 of 39 shots. However, their incredibly efficient shooting wasn’t enough to keep up with Minnesota, as Phoenix struggled to find success on defense.
The Mercury allowed 32 points in the first quarter and trailed by 14 at halftime. The Phoenix team will look to improve its defense tonight to force a third game at home.
