ARLINGTON, Texas (AP) — Allisha Gray scored 26 points, Angel Reese had 12 points and 16 rebounds for her 51st career double-double, and the Atlanta Dream beat the Dallas Wings 77-72 on Tuesday night.
Reese grabbed eight offensive rebounds — one more than Dallas had as a team. The 24-year-old Reese also had 14 rebounds in the opener on Saturday to become the second youngest WNBA player to reach 50 career double-doubles behind Tina Charles.
Jordin Canada had 19 points, seven rebounds and five assists, and Rhyne Howard added 14 points for Atlanta (2-0), which only got five points from its bench players. Brionna Jones (right knee) did not play.
Canada sank a contested 3-pointer with 3:34 remaining to cap Atlanta’s 15-6 run to begin the fourth for a 73-65 lead.
Arike Ogunbowale led Dallas (1-1) with 20 points. Paige Bueckers added 15 and Jessica Shepard had 12 points and eight rebounds. Azzi Fudd, the No. 1 overall pick in the WNBA draft, did not play due to a right knee injury.
Dallas led at halftime for the second straight game, something the Wings only did 14 times last season.
