On a night when it looked like the Dream might finally see their three-game win streak snapped, Atlanta roared back from a 17-point deficit to take down the Seattle Storm in a thrilling comeback victory, 94-87. Fueled by their star duo, Rhyne Howard and Allisha Gray, the Dream showcased firepower on both ends of the floor.

Howard led the charge with 33 points, six rebounds, five assists and two steals—including the game-sealing shot that silenced the Seattle crowd. Meanwhile, Allisha Gray delivered the best performance of her career, dropping a career-high 28 points and four rebounds. Together, the duo combined for a jaw-dropping 61 points.
