Atlanta trailed by a 70-64 count late in the third quarter before outscoring the Lynx by a 24-5 margin the rest of the way en route to their third straight victory.

Angel McCoughtry added 19 points and Erika de Souza amassed 16 points and a game-high 16 rebounds for the Dream. Arminite Harrington contributed 14 points to the triumph, six of which came in the final frame.

The Lynx trailed 52-41 at the half before putting together a 29-12 run, with Seimone Augustus making 1-of-2 free throws after Moore buried a 3-pointer to put Minnesota up 70-64 with under two minutes left in the third.
