BOSTON (AP) --- Olivia Nelson-Ododa scored 18 points and Kennedy Burke had 17
to lead the Connecticut Sun to an 85-77 win over the Los Angeles Sparks at TD
Garden on Tuesday night.
Diamond Miller finished with 13 points for the Sun, who played a game in Boston

the Sun (9-25). Leila Lacan had 10 assists and Saniya Rivers scored 11 points

The Sun took a 7-2 lead off a pull-up 3-pointer by Miller. Leading 46-40 at
halftime, the Sun went on an 8-0 run that started with a driving layup by
Nelson-Ododa, who was fouled and completed the three-point play. Burke added a
3-pointer and Miller made a layup to force the Sparks to take a timeout.
