Williams Turning The Corner
After a 2-9 start from the Dream, the Atlanta squad has rattled off three wins in five thanks in part to the former Blue Devil. Williams has scored double-figures in three of the five, including back-to-back 17 point outings. The forward is also cleaning up on the glass, recording at least eight rebounds in the last five games. Keep it up! 💪
Solid performance by the @AtlantaDream center @E_Williams_1 to lead the charge 🙌🏀 #DreamOn #WatchMeWork pic.twitter.com/fHBVkBgenk

Extra Gray
It never gets too old to talk about our Point Gawd and her triple-double.
"Few can control the pace of a game and generate consistent offense like @cgray209, and she was at the peak of her powers against the Mystics."

Scheer Continues Her Form
Despite grabbing 11 points and seven rebounds, Kathleen Scheer was unable to help her Nunawading Spectres defeat the Lady Cobras in an 80-72 defeat. The loss ended a three-game winning streak. Sitting in third in the league, the Spectres have one final regular-season game heading into the weekend.
Sharpshooter Lexie Brown
There is no secret Brown has adapted to her second stop in the WNBA with the Lynx much smoother than her first. The Jamestown Sun joined up with Brown to take the journey from her high school tantrums to her growth in the WNBA.
Thomas to Represent Team Americas
2011 graduate Krystal Thomas was selected to take part in the Aurora Games, an all-women sport's festival held August 20-25 at the Times Union Center in Albany, N.Y. Congrats Krystal!
