Overview

  • The Atlanta Dream beat the Toronto Tempo 107-95 on Monday, paced by Rhyne Howard (22 points, six 3s) and Angel Reese (20 points, 14 rebounds).
  • Reese recorded her 22nd double‑double of the season, the most ever in a single season for the Dream, and she needs six more in 12 games to tie Alyssa Thomas’ WNBA single‑season mark of 28.
  • Howard became the fastest player in WNBA history to make 100 three‑pointers in a season, reaching the mark in 31 games and eclipsing the previous 33‑game pace.
  • The win improved Atlanta to 20-12 and showcased deeper scoring balance and rotation that have driven a seven‑of‑nine stretch, strengthening the team’s late push for playoff positioning.
  • Video of a third‑quarter rebound contest showed Reese’s hand contact with Toronto’s Aneesah Morrow that seemed to hit Morrow’s eye, no foul was called during the game and no league discipline has been reported.
