Dream and Valkyries meet in Game 3 of the tied WNBA Finals

The Atlanta Dream and Golden State Valkyries are tied 1-1 in the WNBA Finals, with Game 3 set for Wednesday in Atlanta.

The Dream won Game 2 by 79-65 to even the series, taking home-court advantage from Golden State.

Atlanta’s Angel Reese, the WNBA Defensive Player of the Year, scored 30 points and grabbed 16 rebounds in that win.

Her performance made her the youngest player to record a Finals double-double in league history, according to the source.

Both teams are seeking their first WNBA championship, so the winner of Game 3 will move ahead in the series.

The game is being played at State Farm Arena, a larger venue than the Dream’s usual home court, and the team plans to play there full-time from 2027.

Game 4 is scheduled for Saturday, also at State Farm Arena, with its start time moved earlier to fit the Hawks’ game that night.
