It was an amazing shootout between two WNBA stars in China on Saturday.

Maya Moore scored "only" 43 points, but Shanxi, her team, defeated visiting Zhejiang 112-96 in the Women's Chinese Basketball Association Finals. The victory gave Shanxi a 2-1 lead in the best-of-five series.

Moore, the 6-foot forward who plays for the Lynx in the summer, had a triple-double with 43 points, 12 rebounds and 11 assists. She also had four steals and a block and played all 40 minutes.

But Liz Cambage, strictly as an individual, outshined Moore. The 6-8 center who plays for Tulsa scored 54 points and had 11 rebounds. She was 18-for-18 from the floor -- that's not a typo -- and 18-for-19 from the free-throw line. Cambage also blocked two shots.

The fourth game of the WCBA Finals will be held Tuesday at Hangzhou, a neutral site. Why's that? Remember that after Game 1 in Zhejiang, when Cambage fouled out and the home team lost, fans attacked the officials. And the WCBA came down hard on Zhejiang -- no home games for a year.

Swarm loses on road Colorado beat the Minnesota Swarm 15-9 in the National Lacrosse League. John Grant Jr., the NLL's MVP last season, had five goals and six assists for 11 points for the host Mammoth (2-2). Rookie Shayne Jackson led the Swarm (1-3) with one goal and four assists. Three of his teammates had three points: Jordan MacIntosh had two goals and one assist, Kiel Matisz and Ryan Benesch each had one goal and two assists.
