Although Sky newcomer Alanna Smith had previously played with the Mercury and Fever in the WNBA, overseas is where the forward had found her biggest success — until now.
On Tuesday night against the Fever, Smith didn’t look like someone with just 71 WNBA appearances, but rather a veteran capable of executing with the game on the line. And that’s exactly what she did, scoring on a layup to send the game to overtime and then making the go-ahead basket with less than a minute to play to help secure a 108-103 victory at Wintrust Arena.
