🔭 On the Radar: Allisha Gray

Allisha Gray is the engine behind Atlanta’s 10-5 start, combining clutch shot-making with do-it-all defense. Over her first 15 games, Allisha is putting up 19.7 points, 5.0 rebounds, and 3.9 assists per night while drilling 43% of her threes—all while taking the toughest perimeter matchup on defense.

  • 🏆 Awards season: First Dream player since 2018 to collect multiple Eastern Conference Player of the Week honors in one year (Weeks 2 & 4). She also just reached 4th All-Time in Dream history for three-pointers made.
