The Atlanta Dream aren’t done yet. They shoved the Golden State Valkyries aside, winning 80-69 on Thursday afternoon to force a decisive Game 7 in the WNBA finals, making history as the first time the league has ever seen a Game 7.

Dream Found Their Offense When It Mattered Most

Talk about staring down the barrel! The Dream were facing elimination in Game 6, a wild lunchtime tipoff, and their championship dreams were totally on the brink. But man, did they respond. They overwhelmed the Valkyries, hitting 80 points and rediscovering that offensive touch exactly when it looked like their season was going to flatline. That 80-69 victory was a statement. They said, “Not today. Not ever.”

So what’s next? Everything! Game 7 in the WNBA finals is set for Saturday night. It’s winner-take-all, the first one in WNBA history. This is going to be epic. You won’t want to miss it.
