Two top talents join Rhyne Howard on the Atlanta Dream

Don’t worry, Rhyne. Help is on the way.

On April 11, the Atlanta Dream added two top talents in the first round of the 2023 WNBA Draft. Stanford guard Haley Jones was the Dream’s No. 6 pick. The Atlanta franchise then picked up South Carolina forward Laeticia Amihere just two spots later.

Two fantastic picks for a team that needs the help. Despite a Rhyne Howard WNBA Rookie of the Year campaign last season, the Dream finished 14-22 and missed the playoffs. Howard was also a WNBA All-Star as a first-year player, finishing with per-game averages of 16.
