INDIANAPOLIS (AP) Tina Charles had 26 points, 15 rebounds and six assists to help the New York Liberty beat the Indiana Fever 78-75 in overtime on Sunday.

Sugar Rodgers scored 14 points, Tanisha Wright added 13 and Kiah Stokes grabbed a career-high 14 rebounds for the Liberty (8-4), who have won four in a row.

Indiana (5-8) used a 16-4 run - capped by Briann January's two free throws after New York's Shavonte Zellous picked up a pair of technical fouls - to lead by five with 2:21 left in regulation.

Trailing 66-62, Rogers hit a leaning 3 with 22.1 seconds left and then, after January made 1 of 2 free throws on the other end, Rogers hit two foul shots to force overtime.
