By Yakiri Thomas / July 19, 2018

ATLANTA – After claiming its fifth straight victory on a heroic last-second three-point heave from Tiffany Hayes last night, the Atlanta Dream will return home to host the New York Liberty Thursday inside McCamish Pavilion beginning at 7 p.m. ET. The game will be streamed live on WatchESPN.

Atlanta (13-9) pulled off the dramatic win at Connecticut Tuesday night. Angel McCoughtry, who was named an All-Star earlier in the day, scored 24 points and Hayes added 18 points, including her game-winning bucket. The half-court shot was the longest (46.7 FT) game-winner made in the last 10 seconds of a regular-season game in WNBA history.
