Gabby Williams had the perfect response to questions about WNBA Finals Game 6 start time
The Dream forced a Game 7 in the WNBA Finals during a Thursday matinee.
The WNBA Finals Game 6 between the Golden State Warriors and the Atlanta Dream took an early start at 12:30 p.m. local time, despite the less-than-ideal tipoff affecting the Warriors' performance. Valkyries forward Gabby Williams, however, had a different take on the matter when asked about the impact of the early start time during a post-game press conference.
Williams firmly stated, "They played at the same time as us, right? So it’s not an excuse." Despite scoring a game-high 26 points, Golden State found themselves down by 20 points as early as the first quarter. The two teams will face each other again on Saturday night for the decisive Game 7 at the Chase Center, with a more reasonable tipoff time of 8 p.m. Eastern Time.
