Borlase's WNBA dream fading after Game 5 finals loss to Valkyries
Another big performance from the Golden State Valkyries puts Australian Izzy Borlase's Atlanta Dream on the brink of losing the WNBA Finals series.
Australian rookie Izzy Borlase's WNBA aspirations are dwindling after her Atlanta Dream suffered a 64-55 defeat to Golden State in Game 5 of the WNBA Finals. The series now stands at 3-2 in favor of Golden State, who can secure the championship title with a win in Game 6 at Atlanta. Borlase, who was the subject of her second-season with the Dream, struggled mightily, scoring just four points and four rebounds in 16 minutes of play as the Dream lost the crucial match.
Defending champion Golden State secured the lead with a dominant second-half performance, including a critical 9-2 run, and will need one more victory to claim their first-ever WNBA title.
