ATLANTA (May 15, 2025) –The Atlanta Dream announced today that they have finalized their 2025 regular season roster featuring 11 players. Following a transformative offseason that brought in 10-time WNBA All-Star Brittney Griner, 3-time All-Star Brionna Jones, and Sixth Player of the Year runner-up Shatori Walker-Kimbrough, the Dream enter the season with a blend of leadership, experience and emerging stars poised to redefine the franchise's championship aspirations.

The 2025 roster highlights the return of key contributors, including 2x All-Stars Rhyne Howard and Allisha Gray, along with 2x WNBA Champion and defensive standout Jordin Canada.
