SPARKS TONIGHT

at San Antonio, 5 PDT

NBA-TV, Telemundo

Site -- SBC Center.

Radio -- KLAC (570).

Records -- Sparks 18-7, Silver Stars 6-19.

Record vs. Silver Stars -- 2-0.

Update -- Dee Brown, who was in his first year of coaching San Antonio, resigned Friday. Assistants Shell Dailey and Vonn Read will share head-coaching responsibilities. The Sparks’ double-overtime victory against Sacramento on Thursday guaranteed they would keep the lead in the Western Conference during the WNBA’s Olympic hiatus, which begins after the weekend. Mwadi Mabika, who will play on the league’s all-star team in an exhibition game against the USA Olympic team in New York on Thursday, probably wishes the season were continuing. She has led the Sparks in scoring in three consecutive games.
