That it was “The Elena Delle Donne Show”. The Washington Mystics totally put the Atlanta Dreams to sleep in the second half on last night’s game with a 20 – point rally 70 – 50 ending score. Guard Elena Delle Donne lead the annihilation with 15 points for the night. Once she got started, it was “The Elena Delle Donne Show” and nonstop daggers from that point on! Dreams guard Erica Wheeler tried awaken the team, but to no avail, the team succumb to the Mystic’s explosion.
Too add to the ignition, Mystic’s Kennedy Burke came off the bench with 13 points. Dream’s star rookie, Rhyne Howard was shut down scoreless in the entire game. Her normal contribution is 20.5 points per game.
It didn’t help to ease the rumble from the Mystics when the Dreams turned over the ball 25 times allowing the Mystics to capitalize on it and score 20 points to their advantage. This rally in turn puts the Mystics at the top of the WNBA standings. Also, with the rally over Dreams, Elena Delle Donne becomes the 40th WNBA player to reach 4,000 career points, as “The Elena Delle Donne Show” continued. The Atlanta Dreams next opponent will be at home against the Phoenix Mercury Sunday, May 29 at 11:00 am. Let’s see what comeback strategies Coach Wright and the Dreams have to reclaim themselves. Diana Taurasi and Skylar Diggins are the stars and will definitely be in the building to represent shine. Mercury’s current standing is number 4 in the West. Most of Atanta Dreams boost would definitely come from their star rookie Rhyne Howard. Hopefully, she will be able to get back in the swing of things by their upcoming game.
