Atlanta Dream Beats #2 Ranked Connecticut Sun

The Atlanta Dream is a team that thrives on flying under the radar, but make no mistake—they are always ready to strike. Their latest 82-70 victory against the #2 ranked Connecticut Sun is a testament to that. Sure, DeWanna Bonner's absence may have given them an edge, but Atlanta has been shaking up the standings all season, taking down heavyweights like the Las Vegas Aces and even the Sun earlier this year.

When it comes to defying expectations, the Dream know how to deliver. On August 18th, with Bonner out of the picture, Atlanta seized the opportunity.

Two-time WNBA All-Star Challenge Winner Allisha Gray was a force on both ends of the court, contributing 11 points, 3 rebounds, and 4 assists, showcasing her versatility and leadership. 2024 Olympic Bronze Medalist Rhyne Howard, meanwhile, was equally impressive, adding 13 points, 4 assists, and 1 steal to the Dream's tally. Their combined efforts were crucial in outmaneuvering the Sun and solidifying the Dream's place as a team that can't be ignored.
