Entering Thursday, the WNBA record for most 3s in a game was 18, which had been done six times, most recently by the Liberty themselves last season. Against the Sky, they one-upped themselves and made 19 3s to set the league's new single-game record.

The reigning champion Liberty dominated the upstart Sky on Thursday night in Chicago, breaking a WNBA record for 3-pointers in a game.

After making only four 3-pointers on 19 percent shooting in their season-opening win Saturday, the Liberty set a league record Thursday for most 3s by a team in a game when Kennedy Burke drained their 19th 3-pointer in the fourth quarter. As a team, they shot 55.9 percent from downtown.
