How the Valkyries stole Game 4 on the road to even WNBA Finals at 2-2
Golden State won Game 4 in Atlanta, held Angel Reese to eight points and take home-court advantage back to Ballhalla.
The top 3
- Tactical adjustments and defensive pressure in Game 4: The Valkyries evened the series at 2-2 by making significant lineup changes and executing a defensive game plan that effectively neutralized the Dream's offense. By implementing zone defense and increasing pressure, they forced 14 first-half turnovers and limited Angel Reese to only eight points on 2-for-12 shooting.
- Logistical conflict for Game 6: Game 6 is currently listed as 'TBD' because State Farm Arena is already booked for an NBA game between the Atlanta Hawks and the Cleveland Cavaliers. The league and the Dream face limited options, including moving the game to the smaller Gateway Center Arena, selecting an alternative venue in Atlanta, or negotiating a major shift to the overall Finals schedule.
