TONIGHT'S GAME HIGHLIGHTS INCLUDE

Already Chicago's all-time leader in three-pointers, Sky guard Allie Quigley moved to 17th all-time in career three-pointers made in the WNBA on Tuesday, as she knocked down seven triples during Chicago's 76-80 loss to Dallas. Her performance from beyond the arc also matched the franchise's single-game record in made threes set by Stacey Dales in 2007.

Not only did Quigley log a season-high in points scored (27 points), but she also set a franchise record for single-game points scored by a reserve player and matched the WNBA's single-game points scored by a reserve player record.

Three Sky players scored in double figures against the Wings, as Quigley (27 points), forward Kahleah Copper (16 points) and center Azurá Stevens (14 points) led the effort on offense.

Sky guard Courtney Vandersloot recorded her third consecutive game with double-digit assists. Tonight, she dished out 12 assists in 30 minutes of action.

Chicago center Stefanie Dolson had a season-high in blocks (4), with her previous high this season (2 blocks) having occurred on multiple occasions.

NEXT UP: The Chicago Sky (11-11) take a .500 record into its weekend matchup against the Minnesota Lynx (13-8) on Saturday, August 21, 2021, with tip-off set at Wintrust Arena for 7:00 p.m. CT. Sky fans can tune in to CW26/NBA TV to cheer on the team.
