Comes in deciding Finals Game 5

Wire Report IntelligenceUpdated 1h1 min read

Kiah Stokes has three 3-pointers tonight. She made three or fewer 3s in six of her 11 seasons in the league. Via @alexaphilippou on X

What happened: The third make pushed the margin to 10 points. Stokes totaled three or fewer makes in six of her 11 seasons.

Why it matters: Stokes plays as a defense-first screener and rim protector with a Finals blocks record in this series. Extra spacing from that spot forces centers away from the paint in a deciding game.

By the numbers: 3 3-pointers tonight; 6 of 11 seasons with 3 or fewer makes.

What to watch: The close will show whether Atlanta changes its drop coverage against the extra spacing.
