- The Atlanta Dream defeated the Chicago Sky 88-70 on June 13, 2025, at Gateway Center Arena with Rhyne Howard scoring a career-high 36 points.
- The Sky, coached by first-time head coach Tyler Marsh, struggled due to the absence of injured point guard Courtney Vandersloot and inconsistent defense throughout the game.
- Howard tied the WNBA record by sinking nine three-pointers in a game, surpassing Renee Montgomery's previous franchise record of eight, while Brittney Griner climbed to second on the league’s all-time career blocks list.
- Chicago led 39-38 at halftime and had 20 assists and 40 points in the paint but suffered from 15 turnovers and could not sustain energy or shooting accuracy late in the game.
- The Dream reached a 7-3 record, equaling their strongest opening performance since 2016, while Marsh emphasized the importance of maintaining consistent effort throughout the full 40 minutes and holding the offense accountable to overcome the Sky’s 2-7 standing.
