Defending champions Sichuan limited Inner Mongolia to just nine points in the fourth quarter to achieve a 90-85 comeback win in Game 1 of the Women's Chinese Basketball Association (WCBA) league Finals on Thursday.
It was the third consecutive finals featuring the two sides. Led by Jonquel Jones, Inner Mongolia held the lead for almost the entire game, but collapsed in the final period.

For Sichuan, Han took a team-high 23 points and Cambage added 21 points and 11 rebounds. Backcourt duo Wang Siyu and Li Meng, who were decisive in Sichuan's 29-9 fourth quarter, combined for 30 points and five assists.
Both Sichuan and Inner Mongolia had 34-2 regular-season records to directly enter the quarterfinals, before achieving clean sweeps in the quarterfinals and semifinals to set up their duel.
The WCBA Finals feature a best-of-five format, with Game 2 also taking place on Inner Mongolia's home court on Saturday.
