The Chicago Sky will travel to Georgia on Sunday to face the Atlanta Dream at the Gateway Center. This will be their second meeting, with their last game resulting in an 88-70 win for the Dream in the Commissioner's Cup.
Chicago heads south to play their second game in two days, having faced the Phoenix Mercury at home on Saturday. The Sky suffered a heavy 107-86 defeat and will face the Dream after a two-game losing streak. On the other hand, Atlanta beat the Washington Mystics by a single point on Saturday and will look to build on that momentum.
Despite contrasting fortunes this season, the Eastern Conference game holds huge promise as both teams have their agendas. The Dream (9-4) sits fourth in the standings, and a victory would see them widen the gap to fifth-place Seattle (8-5). Alternatively, the Sky (3-9) are in the 11th seed but could leapfrog the 10th-placed Sparks (4-10) with a win.
In terms of players, Allisha Gray will look to continue her fine form for the Dream, while Rhyne Howard will look to replicate her 36-point performance from her previous meeting against the Sky.
Angel Reese will be looking to bounce back after a dismal performance against the Mercury as well. The forward didn't feature in the fourth quarter after recording nine points and two rebounds.
