Dream Dominates Fever, Clinches Second Win

The Atlanta Dream secured a decisive 113-96 victory against the visiting Indiana Fever on Saturday afternoon. Rhyne Howard was the standout performer, scoring 24 points, including crucial three-pointers and perfect free-throw shooting. Allisha Gray contributed 22 points, Naz Hillmon added 19, and Angel Reese chipped in 18 for the Dream, who have now won five of their last six games. Jordin Canada also recorded a double-double with 12 points and 12 assists. Despite Caitlin Clark's game-high 26 points, the Fever were unable to overcome their defensive lapses, giving up season-high point totals for the second time this week. Kelsey Mitchell scored 16, and Aliyah Boston added 13 points and nine rebounds for Indiana. A key turning point occurred in the third quarter when the Dream went on a 13-0 run, extending their lead to 73-65. The Fever struggled with ball security, committing 19 turnovers, and experienced significant scoring droughts. Indiana managed only 37 points combined across the second and third quarters, a stark contrast to their strong first-quarter performance where they led by as much as 11 points. The Dream extended their lead to 20 points in the final minutes, cementing their second win over the Fever in three days.
