Angel Reese gets double-double in Dream debut, clinching 91-90 comeback win over Lynx with last-second block
Reese also blocked a shot by Emese Hof to clinch the Dream's comeback win.
Angel Reese scored 11 points and grabbed 14 rebounds for a double-double in her debut with the Atlanta Dream on Saturday. Surely making that achievement even sweeter was the Dream rallying from a 17-point deficit for a 91-90 win over the Minnesota Lynx at the Target Center in Minneapolis. Reese preserved the victory by blocking a layup attempt by Emese Hof as time expired.
ANGELLLLLLLLL pic. twitter. com/pBACN1r9t4 — Shabazz 💫 (@ShowCaseShabazz) May 10, 2026 The comeback for Atlanta looked as it would fall just short in during the final minute.
Atlanta had an opportunity to take the lead, but Jordin Canada had her shot blocked by Anastasiia Olairi Kosu and Reese missed a layup after grabbing the offensive rebound. Canada got the rebound from Reese’s miss and Dream coach Karl Smesko called timeout with 22. 5 seconds remaining.
Off the inbounds play, Atlanta had difficulty finding an open look. But after taking a pass from Naz Hillmon and getting past Lynx rookie Olivia Miles with a dribble, Te-Hina Paopao freed herself up for a midrange jumper and the go-ahead score.
