SAN FRANCISCO (AP) --- Kiah Stokes had 13 points, eight rebounds and three
blocked shots as the Golden State Valkyries moved within one win of a
championship in their second season, beating the Atlanta Dream 64-55 in Game 5
of the WNBA Finals on Monday night.
Angel Reese finished with seven points, 15 rebounds and five assists --- a big
difference from her two standout performances in the first two games of the
series at Chase Center. Reese shook her head when whistled for the second of
her three offensive fouls with 7:43 to play.
Fans screamed and clapped thunder sticks following the final buzzer as Stokes
spoke from the floor to chants of "MVP!"
"We appreciate you," a smiling Stokes said. "We got one more."
