Paige Bueckers scored 22 after halftime and Arike Ogunbowale added 21 as Dallas ended a three-game skid.
On Wednesday, the Dallas Wings defeated the Toronto Tempo 94-88 in Arlington, ending a three-game skid with a dominant second-half performance led by Paige Bueckers.
The expansion Tempo, missing starters Brittney Sykes and Julie Allemand, fell to their 10th consecutive loss despite Marina Mabrey scoring a game-high effort.
Arike Ogunbowale led Wings scoring with 21 points, going 13 of 14 from the free-throw line, while Alanna Smith added 13 points and 11 rebounds; Dallas played without All-Star Jessica Shepard, injured against Minnesota, and Fudd.
With eight assists and three steals, Bueckers went four of four from the field and free-throw line in the third quarter, including a pivotal late breakaway layup that sealed the victory.
The Wings visit Indiana on Friday night, while the Tempo host the same opponent on Tuesday for their next matchups.
