The frantic finish

Key fourth-quarter moments from Game 5 of the WNBA Finals:

8:25: Chelsea Gray completes a 2-minute, 35-second stretch in which she scores 11 straight points for the Sparks (L.A. 60, Lynx 59).

3:43: Kristi Tolliver keeps the momentum on the Sparks' side by making a desperation three-pointer from 24 feet (L.A. 69, Lynx 63).

3:06: Candace Parker's basket gives the Sparks their largest lead of the game. Time seems to be running out for the Lynx (L.A. 71, Lynx 63).

2:43: On the heels of a technical FT, Maya Moore puts the Lynx back in the game with a turn-and-shoot three-pointer (L.A. 71, Lynx 67).

1:48: An 8-0 Wolves run is complete after Lindsay Whalen steals the ball and races downcourt for a game-tying layup (L.A. 71, Lynx 71).

1:12: The Sparks' Nneka Ogwumike gets credit for a basket despite the shot clock running out. There is no review (L.A. 73, Lynx 71).

:23: After a Seimone Augustus basket, Rebekkah Brunson makes just one of two free throws, which would prove critical (Lynx 74, L.A. 73).

:02: After Parker and Moore trade baskets, Ogwumike makes the winning basket off a rebound of her blocked shot (L.A. 77, Lynx 76).
