ARLINGTON, Texas (AP) --- Allisha Gray scored five of her 25 points in the
closing seconds and the Atlanta Dream overcame a 15-point deficit to beat the
Dallas Wings 82-81 on Wednesday night in the first game for both teams since
the All-Star break.
Angel Reese had 22 points and 12 rebounds for her 18th double-double of the
season for the Dream (17-10). They have won four in a row and five of six
following a five-game losing streak.
Arike Ogunbowale led Dallas (18-10) with 24 points. Azzi Fudd scored 20 points,
Paige Bueckers had 16 points and Jessica Shepard had 16 points and 14 rebounds
for her WNBA-leading 19th double-double of the season.
Ogunbowale was called for a Flagrant Foul 1 on Gray's 3-point shot with Dallas
leading 81-77 and 18.7 seconds left. Gray hit all three free throws, then took
the ensuing inbounds pass and hit a contested jumper in the lane to give
Atlanta its first lead of the second half with 15 seconds remaining.
Awak Kuier missed a corner 3-point shot before Shepard's putback attempt at the
buzzer missed.
The Dream were 1 of 16 from 3-point range.
