Their defensive intensity continued after the break, limiting the Sun to as many points in the second and third quarters combined as they allowed in the opening period. That turnaround turned an early double-digit deficit into a late third-quarter double-digit lead.
Wilson, a three-time league MVP, notched her third double-double in the last four games and third straight outing with at least 27 points. She secured her 20th rebound in the final minute, matching the mark she set on July 10, 2024, in Seattle, earning a standing ovation from the home crowd.

Kothari completes full marathon at 90 degree north pole
At 90° North, where every direction is south and the Arctic Ocean lies frozen beneath, the Indian tricolour was raised — not on a pole, but in the hands of a man running into history. On July 13, 2025, Kolkata-born entrepreneur Ram Gopal Kothari became the first Indian to finish a full marathon at the Geographic North Pole, joining a select group of athletes to conquer one of the planet's harshest racecourses. The North Pole Marathon takes place on drifting sea ice over water three metres deep, under –8°C temperatures, biting winds, and occasional polar bear sightings. In 2025, Kothari — in his debut full marathon — ran alongside participants from around the world. The journey began in Longyearbyen, Svalbard, aboard the French icebreaker Le Commandant Charcot, navigating to 90°N through solid ice, spotting polar bears, walruses, and blue whales along the way. Kothari crossed the halfway mark in 2 hours 45 minutes, but from kilometre 28, melting snow turned to slush, soaking his shoes and causing severe cramps. 'I had every reason to stop,' he said. 'But I wasn't just running on ice — I was running on a promise and a belief that India belongs everywhere, even at the top of the world.' He finished in just over eight hours. Raised in Kolkata's Burrabazar in a modest home, Kothari overcame early financial struggles and a personal crisis in 2012 that nearly claimed his life. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Why Seniors Are Snapping Up This TV Box, We Explain!

After Shakhtar Donetsk beat Besiktas in the UEFA Europa League second qualifying round in Istanbul on July 28, 2025, people are talking about Arda Turan's very awkward post-match interview. The 38-year-old manager could hardly look at the club's reporter, Daria Bondar Savina, and it was clear he did not want to meet her eyes even for a second. Arda Turan avoids eye contact with Daria Bondar Savina after Shakhtar Donetsk's victory When Arda Turan spoke with Daria Bondar Savina after the match, his actions looked very odd. He looked to the ground, fidgeted, and turned away from the camera, making sure not to look at Daria Bondar Savina. She is 24, and is known not only as the team's reporter but also for her striking presence. Videos of Arda Turan's behavior soon went viral on social media. Many fans noticed how hard he was trying not to look at the reporter. Some funny comments popped up online. One person wrote, 'His eyes are on the woman, his heart is on discipline.' Another said, 'He is afraid of Aslihan, he dares not look anyone else in the eye,' talking about Arda Turan's wife, Aslihan Dogan Turan.
