VANCOUVER, British Columbia (AP) — Isabelle Harrison had 25 points and 10 rebounds and the short-handed Toronto Tempo snapped a 12-game skid with an 82-79 win over the Portland Fire on Friday night.
The Tempo (11-25) won for the first time since a 93-91 victory against New York at the Bell Centre in Montreal on July 12.
The game drew a crowd of 12,414 at Rogers Arena. Toronto plays its second game in Vancouver on Sunday against the Las Vegas Aces, also at Rogers Arena.
The Fire (15-21) are 5 1/2 games behind the Dallas Wings for the eighth and final playoff spot. Portland has eight games remaining in the regular season. The Fire, who are at Dallas on Tuesday, split their two other games against the Wings this season, with the road team winning each game.
Kiki Rice scored a career high-tying 19 points on 7-of-9 shooting, and Laura Jukaite added 15 points for Toronto.
