07/19 14:29 CDT Bueckers scores 25, leaves late in 4th quarter, as Wings beat Sparks 90-82 Bueckers scores 25, leaves late in 4th quarter, as Wings beat Sparks 90-82 ARLINGTON, Texas (AP) --- Paige Bueckers had 25 points before leaving the game following a scary collision, Arike Ogunbowale scored six of her 20 down the stretch and the Dallas Wings beat the Los Angeles Sparks 90-82 on Sunday to extend their winning streak to a franchise-record six games. Bueckers hit a 3-pointer that capped an 14-5 spurt and gave the Wings an eight-point lead with 9:12 left in the game. Jessica Shepard had 11 points, 14 rebounds and six assists for the Wings (17-8) and Azzi Fudd also scored 11. The Sparks (10-15) have lost four consecutive games, all on the road. LA's Nneka Ogwumike was fouled as she ran downcourt and, as she fell to the ground, collided with Bueckers with about 3 1/2 minutes to play and Dallas leading by four. Both players remained down on the court for a couple of minutes. Ogwumike stayed in the game, while Bueckers --- who appeared to hit the back of her head on the floor --- walked to the locker room and did not return. Ogunbowale scored six points from there to seal it. Ogwumike made 7 of 12 from the field and finished with 17 points and 10 rebounds. Dearica Hamby added 16 points on 8-of-12 shooting, Cameron Brink scored 10 and Erica Wheeler had 10 assists to go with nine points for LA. Dallas beat the Sparks 104-96 in LA on June 5.

Up next Sparks: Host Phoenix on Wednesday. Wings: Host New York on Monday, a postponed game that had originally been scheduled for Thursday. ___ AP WNBA: https://apnews.com/hub/wnba-basketball
