A couple of teams with identical records near the top of the league standings meet up on Sunday, Aug. 10 when the Phoenix Mercury host the Atlanta Dream at PHX Arena in Phoenix.

Both teams are 19-11 and coming into this meeting on a winning streak, but the Dream have already won the season series and are now looking to complete a three-game sweep of the Mercury in the regular season.
They’ve met twice recently with the first contest happening on July 23 and the most recent coming Aug. 1. Atlanta won both games by double figures, winning 90-79 in PHX Arena the first time, and then 95-72 at the Gateway Center in College Park, Ga.
This time around Atlanta will once again be without Rhyne Howard and Brittney Griner, who missed the last meeting when Allisha Gray made seven 3-pointers and scored a game-high 26 points.
Phoenix is coming off a 35-point victory in its last game that saw DeWanna Bonner score a game-high 23 off the bnech while Alyssa Thomas put together a triple-double with 18 points, 11 boards and 10 assists.
Entering the day, these teams were tied for third, one game behind the New York Liberty in second with the Liberty taking on the Minnesota Lynx earlier in the day.
