Bridget Carleton secured an offensive rebound on an errant Courtney Williams jumper and was fouled on the play. She sank both free throws to put Minnesota up two and secure the win.
Liberty coach Sandy Brondello called this the highest-level WNBA Finals series in league history for the quality of play, and both teams rose to meet the bar.
Neither the Minnesota Lynx nor the New York Liberty led by more than six points, and there were 14 lead changes and 13 ties.
Reeve said at this point in the series, the contest was tied after the first quarter and the Lynx only led by a point after the second and third quarters.
