Angel Reese, Dream on wrong end of WNBA history
Angel Reese and the Atlanta Dream entered the WNBA Finals with a lot of momentum on their side. They swept the first two rounds of the playoffs and reached the championship series despite only being the No. 4 seed. However, they are on the wrong end of history after the Game 5 defeat on Monday.
The Dream lost 64-55 and are now facing elimination against the Golden State Valkyries. Reese finished with seven points, 15 rebounds and five assists, which was her second straight outing with less than 10 points. Rhyne Howard led Atlanta with 20 points and five rebounds, while Jordin Canada produced 12 points, six rebounds and five assists. Allisha Gray added 10 points.
Valkyries set finals blocks mark over Angel Reese, Dream
Golden State recorded nine blocks on Monday, pushing its series total to 37. It’s already a new finals record with still at least one game remaining.
The Golden State Valkyries set a new WNBA Finals record with 37 blocks in a single series.

Veronica Burton amassed four blocks despite being a point guard, and Kiah Stokes added three in Game 5.
The Valkyries defense limited Atlanta to 19-of-65 shooting, good for only 29.2%. It made it tough for Reese and her teammates to get to their usual spots and score on easy baskets. The team has established itself as one of the best in the league in points allowed.
Game 6 will be played on Thursday at State Farm Arena, with tip-off at 12:30 p.m. ET. Golden State has a chance to end the series and win its first ever championship in only its second season. Blocking will play an important role as the team has had a lot of success in low-scoring matchups.
However, it won’t be easy as Reese aims to bounce back strong and force a Game 7 at Chase Center. She and her teammates will also have their home fans rallying behind them to keep their title hopes alive.
