The Los Angeles Sparks won the 2016 WNBA championship Thursday over the Minnesota Lynx on a putback fallaway by Nneka Ogwumike with 3.1 seconds left in the fifth game of the Finals.
Candace Parker led the way with 28 points and 12 rebounds, and dedicated the emotional victory to her college coach Pat Summitt, who died in June.
