Rhyne Howard leads the AtlantaDream rebuild as they tip off their WNBA season tonight. WiltonReports took a deep dive into their last couple of years
The Dream were slated to have three picks in the first round of the 2022 draft. Five days before, Atlanta traded its No. 3 and No. 14 selections to the Mystics to acquire the No. 1 pick and a first-round pick swap in the ’23 draft. That allowed Atlanta the opportunity to draft Howard, and then Hillmon at No. 15. Wright, who knew Howard would be a No.
Vaughn, who has been a defensive-minded player her entire career, knows it’s no secret that the key to success will be defense. “In this league, everybody can score, but defense will be our foundation,” Vaughn says. For McDonald and others, success in Atlanta is not just about wins and losses. With the WNBA entering its 26th season Friday with increased ratings, fundraising efforts from outside sponsors and a platform that allows players to be a voice in the culture, McDonald wants to see more of that in Atlanta. The team has practiced in CORE4 Atlanta, a state-of-the-art facility owned by former Hawks player Paul Millsap and his brothers.
