Match Info

The Phoenix Mercury edged out the Chicago Sky 83-79 in a tightly contested WNBA matchup on August 29, 2025. A late-game surge led by the Mercury's star backcourt sealed the hard-fought home victory. The game was a back-and-forth affair with multiple lead changes, as both teams showcased their offensive firepower. The Sky's interior presence kept them in the game, but the Mercury's perimeter shooting, particularly in the final minutes, made the difference. A crucial three-pointer followed by a defensive stop in the closing seconds allowed Phoenix to clinch the win. This result was significant for the Mercury's playoff positioning in a crowded Western Conference, providing a key victory against a direct rival. Sky coach acknowledged his team's fight but pointed to late execution, while Mercury's coach praised her team's resilience in closing out a close game.
