Chicago Sky at Atlanta Dream
· Women's National Basketball AssociationAngel Reese records 11th straight double-double and the Sky top the Dream 85-77
Reese scored 12 points and set a franchise record with 19 rebounds to move within one double-double of Candace Parker's WNBA record of 12 straight. Reese is the first WNBA rookie to have 10-plus rebounds and 19-plus rebounds in a game since Teaira McCowan in 2019.
Chicago trailed 75-72 before Atlanta went the final three minutes without a field goal. Diamond DeShields rattled in a 3-pointer from the corner with 2:21 left to tie it at 75-all and she added one free throw on the Sky’s next possession to take the lead for good.
Carter took over down the stretch, making a basket on three straight possessions. She converted her second straight driving layup for an 80-77 lead and then stole it at the other end, leading to a jumper from the free-throw line.
Dana Evans added 14 points and Kamilla Cardoso had eight points and 10 rebounds for Chicago (7-11).
Allisha Gray, who joins Reese on the All-Star team, scored 19, and Tina Charles had 19 points, 14 rebounds and five assists for Atlanta (7-11), which turned it over 18 times. Cheyenne Parker-Tyus and Jordin Canada each added 11 points.
South Carolina coach Dawn Staley came onto the court after the game for an embrace with her former player Cardoso.
