Atlanta DreamvsDallas Wings
ATL 82/DAL 81
Things to say
Atlanta edged Dallas 82-81 on the road for the win.
01
opener
Atlanta stole one in Dallas, 82-81. Came right down to the wire. Wings had it and let it slip.
02
key player
Allisha Gray was the best player on the floor, 25 points and just ice in her veins down the stretch.
03
hot take
Arike had 24 but Dallas can't keep losing these one-possession games. That's on the coaching, not the buckets.
04
deep cut
Angel Reese quietly grabbed 12 boards, and Jordin Canada was dishing all night with 8 dimes. That's what won it.
05
exit
Both these teams are gonna be a problem come playoffs. Should be a fun back half of the season.
The recap
Atlanta walked into Dallas and stole one by a single point, 82-81, and games this tight always come down to who wants it in the final minute. Allisha Gray was the engine, pouring in 25 and carrying the load down the stretch, while Angel Reese ate them up on the glass with 12 boards and all the dirty work that doesn't show up in the box score.
Arike Ogunbowale did her thing with 24 for Dallas, but the Wings just couldn't get that one last bucket to steal it back. One-possession road win, and Atlanta takes it home.
