The Atlanta Dream visit the Washington Mystics on May 16, Thursday, at the CareFirst Arena.
The Dream opens their season with a game against the Mystics, a team they had an almost-similar record with last season. The Dream finished with a 15-25 record last year, while the Mystics recorded a 14-26 slate.
The Mystics and Dream are dealing with injuries in their respective camps. Aaliyah Edwards, who started in 17 games for the Mystics and averaged 7.6 points last season, is out with a lower back contusion. On the other hand, the Dream's Jordin Canada will miss the game due to a right knee injury. Canada averaged 10.6 points, 5.8 assists, and 1.6 steals in 2024.
Still, Atlanta has Allisha Gray to lead them. The eight-year veteran is coming off two straight All-Star appearances, having averaged 15.6 points, 4.4 rebounds, and 2.7 assists last season. Without Canada's playmaking, the team will rely more on Gray's shot creation to get them through on offense.
Finally, the Dream also added the 6-foot-9 Brittney Griner to their lineup. Griner's career averages of 17.7 points, 7.4 rebounds, and 2.6 blocks will be a huge boost for the team.
