-Watch the Dream take on the Storm at 10:00 p.m. on ESPN3-
ATLANTA (June 13, 2017) — The Atlanta Dream, in the midst of a five-game road trip, will play the Seattle Storm Tuesday at 10:00 p.m. The Dream enter the game 4-4 after losing all three of their games last week.
Despite a 16-point effort from forward Damaris Dantis, the Dream fell to the Connecticut Sun Saturday 104-71. The Dream are now 2-3 on the road this season. It was the first game without 13-year veteran forward Sancho Lyttle who is taking a temporary leave to play for Spain in the FIBA Eurobasket 2017 Tournament. Lyttle will rejoin the team later this month.
It was also the Dream’s first game since acquiring forward Jordan Hooper from the Sun. The Dream traded a second-round pick in the 2018 WNBA Draft for the fourth-year forward.
The Storm (5-4) are coming off a loss to the New York Liberty 94-86 on Sunday. Despite a season-high 21 points from nine-time WNBA All-Star Sue Bird and another 23 points from 2016 WNBA Rookie of the Year Breanna Stewart, the Storm were unable to beat the Liberty.
The Storm took control of the series last season, winning two of their three regular-season matchups. However, the Dream won the most recent meeting of the two teams in the playoffs.
