Sparks receive major boost following Aces takedown

The Los Angeles Sparks are coming off their biggest win of the season following a 98-93 takedown of the Las Vegas Aces. The Sparks have another game coming up on Sunday against the Phoenix Mercury during which they're expected to have Azurá Stevens back in the lineup from injury for the first time this season. Azurá Stevens suffered an arm injury while playing in China in the offseason and had been missing from the Sparks' lineup. The Sparks have since reverted to a small lineup with Dearica Hamby moving to center and Stephanie Talbot playing small ball power forward.
