NEW YORK — Sue Bird's 3-pointer with 10.6 seconds left, her only points of the game, lifted the Seattle Storm to a 77-75 victory over the New York Liberty today.

Lauren Jackson and Iziane Castro Marques scored 23 points apiece for Seattle (11-12), which ended a three-game losing streak. Janell Burse added 10 points.

After Bird, playing in her second game since having knee surgery on July 6, hit her go-ahead 3, McCarville missed a contested layup under the basket with 2 seconds left, Thorn got the rebound and missed a layup attempt of her own.

Jackson, who shot 9-for-20 from the floor, left the game briefly late in the third quarter with an injured right knee that she hurt diving for a loose ball with about 1:40 left. She returned early in the fourth quarter.
