  "summary": "Angel Reese of the Atlanta Dream made history by leading her team to a hard-fought 79-65 victory over the Golden State Valkyries in Game 2 of the WNBA Finals. This marked the first time in the Dream's franchise history that they won a Finals game, and it evened the best-of-seven series at 1-1. The series will now shift to Atlanta for the next two games. Reese, at just 6-foot-3, became the youngest player in WNBA history to record at least 30 points and 15 rebounds in a postseason game, finishing with 30 points, 16 rebounds, and three assists, making her the third player in league history to achieve this feat in a Finals game. Her performance was a significant turnaround from her first game in the series, where she scored just 11 points before fouling out. Reese's contributions, along with those of Allisha Gray and Jordin Canada, allowed the Dream to control the transition game, scoring 19 points.",
