Video: Aces' Dearica Hamby Hits Miracle Heave to Eliminate Sky from Playoffs
Your fortunes can change drastically in a matter of moments, and the Chicago Sky learned that the hard way Sunday in the second round of the 2019 WNBA playoffs.
With the Sky leading 92-90 in the final seconds, Courtney Vandersloot was attempting to dribble out the clock. But Dearica Hamby intercepted her pass for Diamond DeShields and nailed an improbable go-ahead three-pointer for the Las Vegas Aces.

The play wasn't without some controversy.
Sky head coach James Wade told reporters after the game he thought Hamby stepped out of bounds prior to the shot. It looked as though her left foot may have gone out as she was tiptoeing along the sideline.
The officials didn't review the play, and the Aces are moving on to the semifinals to face the top-seeded Washington Mystics.
It was the perfect ending for Hamby, who earlier in the day collected the WNBA's Sixth Woman of the Year award.
