Vandersloot's game-winner spoils Ionescu's triple-double effort as Sky best Liberty

Courtney Vandersloot hit a three-pointer from the wing with 0.9 seconds left to help the Chicago Sky overcome Sabrina Ionescu's second career triple-double and beat the New York Liberty 88-86 on Sunday.

Ionescu tied the WNBA record for triple doubles when she finished with 27 points, 13 rebounds and 12 assists, accomplishing the feat by the end of the third quarter — the fastest in league history. It wasn't enough for New York (5-9), which had won four of its past five games.

Trailing 86-85, Vandersloot took a pass from Emma Meesseman on the wing and made the three. New York had one last chance, but couldn't get a good shot off.

Vandersloot finished with 20 points, 10 assists and six rebounds for the Sky (9-4), who have won five of six.
