Allisha Gray scored 17 points and the Atlanta Dream won their fifth straight, 74-66 over the Phoenix Mercury on Sunday.

“We didn’t come out ready to play. They punched us in the mouth early and it felt like for majority of the game, we were playing from behind,” the Mercury's Alyssa Thomas said. Thomas led Phoenix with 21 points, eight rebounds and five assists, but the rest of the team struggled with making open shots.
