Dream’s Jordin Canada pulls up from Valkyries logo for bonkers WNBA Finals buzzer-beater

In the thrilling WNBA Finals Game 2, Jordin Canada of the Atlanta Dream made a spectacular buzzer-beating three-pointer from the Valkyries' logo, securing a 14-point lead for her team heading into the fourth quarter. Canada, who has been an instrumental player during the Dream's postseason run, had previously struggled to find the basket in Game 1, scoring just eight points in 38 minutes.

However, her impact was bolstered by the return of Allisha Gray from a hand injury, although Gray had a limited shooting performance with five of 19 attempts. Angel Reese also contributed to the Dream's first-half surge with 15 points and 12 rebounds, despite her usual high standards. With the series tied at 1-1, Canada will need to be at the top of her game in the remaining games if the Dream hope to defeat the Golden State Valkyries in the finals.
