- Angel Reese scored 30 points with 16 rebounds in Game 2 of the WNBA Finals, rebounding after struggling down the stretch of the series opener.
- Atlanta Dream held the Golden State Valkyries to just 65 points while stymieing them at both ends in the second half.
- Atlanta's 79-65 road win levels the best-of-seven series at 1-1, stealing momentum in the WNBA Finals.
- Reese's Game 2 output followed a reportedly vocal demand for the ball — an angle the box-score recap underplays per CBS Sports' framing.
- Golden State now must regroup after surrendering the early series lead at home.
Why it matters: Atlanta's road win levels a series it trailed after Game 1, putting home-court leverage back in play while restoring Reese as the postseason centerpiece after her late-game fade in the opener. For Golden State, dropping the opener's momentum at home shifts the pressure squarely onto the Valkyries heading into the next two games.
