After two games light on free throws, Phoenix shot 18-for-22 from the line, the Lynx 10-for-11. Minnesota finished 30-for-71 (42.3%) shooting from the field and 6-for-24 from three, while the Mercury shot 30-for-65 (46.2%) and six-for-18 from beyond the arc.
Hiedeman, who had been held to zero shot attempts in the Lynx’s loss in Game 2, was seven-for-12 on Sunday, scoring her 19 points in just under 23 minutes.
If Phoenix again defends home court in Game 4 on Sunday, it books its first trip to the WNBA Finals since 2021, when it lost to the Chicago Sky.
But Lynx stealing Sunday’s game on the road would tee up Game 5 back in Minneapolis on Tuesday.
“We still got a game we got to win, right?” Williams said. “You got to feel it, because you don’t want to feel that feeling again, but at the end of the day, you got to watch it, watch the film and be better next game.”
