CHICAGO(AP) Erin Thorn scored 17 points to help the short-handed Chicago Sky hold off a furious late Minnesota surge to beat the Lynx 79-76 on Saturday night.
Chicago (13-12) has won three of its last four games and moved into a virtual tie with Connecticut for fourth place in the Eastern Conference.
The Sky were down to nine healthy players as starting guard Brooke Wyckoff (unspecified illness) and reserve guard K.B. Sharp (sore right knee) sat out.
"We've all had to step up the last couple of games because we've been dropping like flies,'' said Thorn, who played a season-high 27 minutes and produced her second-highest production of the season. "But whatever they need, we've been ready.''
Roneeka Hodges scored 25 points to lead Minnesota (11-13), which has now lost three of its last four, but remained third in the West.
