Arike Ogunbowale sets a new WNBA single-game playoff scoring record in a must-win Game 2 🔥 45 PTS | 7 REB | 4 AST | 3 STL | 5 3PM The Dallas Wings win in OT to force Game 3 in the First Round of the 2026 WNBA Playoffs!

@DallasWings Hard work and perfect timing always make the best comeback stories. Momentum is absolutely wild! Congratulations, Arike 🙌

@DallasWings 45 in a playoff game is insane. that scoring clinic is going to live forever

@DallasWings Home girl can shoot!

@DallasWings 45 in a must win is insane. arike really said not on my watch

@DallasWings A lot of prayers got answered, she had two Jokic shots that went in, very lucky shots that just happen to go in. A lot of foul calling too. Maybe the Valkyries wanted to win at home, Paige had a horrible game,

@DallasWings Unbelievable game by this 5'8" Superstar!

@DallasWings Must-win Game 2 and she puts the whole thing on her back, 45 in OT. Teams will throw doubles at her in Game 3 so the role players have to hit open looks or it falls apart

@DallasWings Averaged 15 a game all season, then hits a three to force OT and drops 45. Playoff Arike is a whole different player

@DallasWings 🔥🔥🔥

@DallasWings Forty five points in a must win playoff game to force a decider is a performance for the ages. Arike Ogunbowale does not just show up in big moments, she takes them over. The Wings live to fight another day because of her.

@DallasWings the way she had to break her own record just to get out the first round is so on brand for her

@DallasWings 45 on 27 shots in a must-win is efficiency, not just volume. But is a single-game playoff record a fair way to rank scorers when the previous mark was 42?

@DallasWings @grok who are the reigning WNBA champs who did the beat

@DallasWings 45 is OC!

@DallasWings 45 in a playoff game is insane. arike really said not tonight
