This game will be played at Gateway Center at 7:30 PM ET on Thursday, June 6, 2024.
New York Liberty
The New York Liberty sit in second place in the WNBA standings entering Thursday night. Their 8-2 record includes four straight wins, the third-longest active winning streak in the league. Tonight, New York will aim to extend that winning streak, though they will have to play at or near their best to avoid the same fate the Las Vegas Aces suffered when they were upset in Atlanta earlier in the season.
While New York is known for its potent offense, it has been the defense of the Liberty that has been really impressive through the first quarter of this season. New York is in the top-three in points per game allowed for the year. Against an Atlanta team that has struggled finding consistent scoring, that defense could be the key to tonight’s Liberty vs Dream matchup.
Atlanta Dream
Entering Thursday, the Atlanta Dream sit in sixth place in the WNBA standings with a 4-3 record. They have lacked the offensive consistency to be better than that early in the year, ranking 10th in the league in points per game. Atlanta will try to change that on Thursday against a Liberty team that has been better than advertised on the defensive end of the floor.
For Atlanta to have success in this game and going forward, they will need more consistency from Rhyne Howard. Howard is an elite scorer when at her best, but she is shooting just 26.1% from three-point range early in the year. There is plenty of time for Howard to improve those numbers, but the Dream can’t afford for her struggles to continue for too long.
