Thanks to career outings from Kamilla Cardoso and Aliyah Boston, the Chicago Sky and Indiana Fever picked up statement wins to snap their respective skids.
Meanwhile, the Washington Mystics handed the league-leading Minnesota Lynx a rare loss, and the Dallas Wings are starting to stack victories after a slow start to the season.
