PHOENIX (AP) — The Phoenix Mercury and Indiana Fever have a tough act to follow in Game 2 of the WNBA Finals.
Phoenix's record-shattering 120-116 overtime victory in Game 1 Tuesday night still had the Mercury's Diana Taurasi shaking her head on Wednesday.
She said it was huge shot after huge shot and an "exciting game to be in." Still, she said she won't watch replays of the contest.
Instead, Taurasi and the rest of the Mercury will try to look ahead to Game 2 of the best-of-5 series on Thursday night in Phoenix.
