Aicha Coulibaly is balling out 🤯 https://t.co/Rfag6JPcGI

What happened: Coulibaly emerged as a scoring spark in Chicago's game against Atlanta on Saturday. Earlier in the matchup, she finished a Cardoso setup after Chicago's ball movement opened the weak side.

Why it matters: The WNBA is in its postseason, so productive scoring stretches carry immediate weight in any CHI-ATL game. Coulibaly's offense gives Chicago another live option when the defense shifts toward the initial action.

What to watch: Watch whether Chicago keeps going back to actions that free Coulibaly away from the ball. Her shot volume later in the game will show whether this was a brief burst or a bigger offensive role.
