Angel Reese led Chicago with 12 points and nine rebounds, but the team was outscored 30-16 in the fourth quarter. Atlanta's Rhyne Howard scored a season-high 36 points, while Allisha Gray, Brionna Jones, and Jordin Canada contributed significantly, and Brittany Griner moved to second place in WNBA history for career blocks. Atlanta improved to 7-3 and continues to lead the league in rebounds with multiple players averaging double figures. Chicago will attempt to regroup in their next game against the Connecticut Sun.
