The Atlanta Dream will host the Connecticut Sun on Sunday for their first encounter of the 2025 WNBA season. Both teams had a 2-2 record against each other in their previous season series, winning one home and away game each.
Connecticut are yet to win their first game of the 2025 campaign after undergoing a significant overhaul of the organization in the offseason. They are coming off a 76-70 road loss to the Minnesota Lynx on Friday, slipping to a 0-3 record.
Marina Mabrey led their losing effort in the game with 22 points, eight rebounds and six assists, while Olivia Nelson-Ododa added a double-double of 10 points, 10 rebounds and two assists.
On the other hand, Atlanta are showing signs of a better season with a 2-2 record so far after they concluded the 2024 campaign with a 15-25 record, unable to clinch a playoff spot. They are going back-to-back following their 72-83 home win against the Dallas Wings on Saturday.
Allisha Gray led their victory charge with 27 points, five rebounds, six assists and three blocks in the game. Brionna Jones added 11 points, 15 rebounds, two assists, two steals and a block for the win.
