What happened: The WNBA released its latest league standings, with the Minnesota Lynx holding the No. 1 spot and the Las Vegas Aces sitting at No. 2 overall. The Atlanta Dream occupy the No. 3 position, riding a three-game winning streak.

Why it matters: Positioning near the top of the table shapes home-court advantage and seeding as the season progresses. Atlanta's rise reflects a strong stretch that has separated the Dream from the middle of the pack and pushed them into the conversation with the league's established contenders.

By the numbers: Atlanta enters at 12-5 on the season, winners of three straight and four of its last five, scoring 88.9 points per game while allowing 82.8. The Dream's largest margin came in a 109-77 result over Washington on June 6.

What to watch: Watch whether Atlanta can sustain its push against the Lynx and Aces, and how the top three separate as the schedule tightens.
