"It was very tough. Again it felt like we had a great chance to win the game and we let it slip. Coming off a loss against New York we had two great days of practice so we felt like we were ready. We made some mistakes that we usually don't make. We turned the ball over in the first half. The second half we could not contain (Lindsay) Whalen . Those are things that are our defense, something that we are very proud of. Today we just weren't there."
• Sacramento's Ticha Penicheiro reflects on Thursday's disappointing 83-78 overtime loss to the Monarchs.

• Minnesota rookie Lindsey Harding discusses her season-ending knee injury.
"I don't think in an interview I've ever used the word 'legacy.' It's not something I ever thought about until now because now I'm in my last days. Not because I can't physically play the game, because I can."
