Atlanta Dream Shared Good Angel Reese News Before Mystics Series

The Atlanta Dream provided a positive health update regarding forward Angel Reese prior to their postseason series opener against the Washington Mystics. Reese had exited the team's final regular season matchup against the New York Liberty following a facial impact and did not return to the contest.

Despite initial concerns, team officials omitted her entirely from the subsequent injury report, confirming her availability for the upcoming playoff action.

During her first season with Atlanta, Reese appeared in 43 contests and established a new league benchmark for total rebounds in a single campaign. She posted averages of 16.4 points, 12.1 rebounds, 2.8 assists, and 1.8 steals per contest.

Her stellar debut year earned her an All-Star selection alongside consideration for the league's Defensive Player of the Year honors. The only player listed as unavailable for the squad ahead of the postseason series was Brionna Jones due to a leg injury.
