On September 25, the first round of the WNBA playoffs continued, with the eighth-seeded Atlanta Dream failing to pull off an upset, losing 82-91 to the Liberty, and being swept out with a score of 0-2.
In the previous game, the Dream fell behind early. This time, they started with great momentum, maintaining control of the court and even achieving an 11-point lead at one point. However, as the Liberty found their rhythm, the gap narrowed bit by bit. By the end of the third quarter, the Dream had been overtaken in score, and in the final quarter, they were unable to respond effectively, allowing the Liberty to dominate the game and ultimately lose.
This time, the Dream really gave it their all, but the gap in strength between the two sides was too obvious, leading to their eventual reversal and marking the end of their journey this season. The Dream’s performance in this game was an improvement over the last, falling just short of victory. Gray scored 26 points in vain, shooting 10 of 16 from the field, including 5 of 8 from beyond the arc. Additionally, Howard contributed 19 points and 5 rebounds, while Charles added 14 points and 6 rebounds.
