The Dream recently defeated the Washington Mystics, blowing out the Eastern Conference team 89-56. Atlanta sits at No. 2 in the East and No. 3 in the WNBA standings with an 8-3 record. 

In their latest victory over the Mystics, Dream star Rhyne Howard scored the 300th three-pointer of her career, becoming the fastest player in WNBA history to reach the feat. 

"WNBA HISTORY MADE," posted the official social media accounts of the Atlanta Dream and the WNBA. "Rhyne Howard has become the fastest player in WNBA history to reach 300 career three-pointers." 

Upon the release of the announcement, with the Dream celebrating Howard's success, Brittney Griner posted the news on social media, sending a message to the Atlanta star.  

"Killing it," Griner said. "What's the next record?" 

Rhyne Howard has been with the Atlanta Dream for the past four seasons. 

In her fourth season in Atlanta, Howard has posted 18.0 points, 5.6 rebounds and 5.0 assists per game, leading the Dream in scoring. 

She's been a star for the Dream since entering the league and has clearly made a name for herself, recently pasting her name in WNBA history. 

Brittney Griner has averaged 11.9 points, 5.8 rebounds and 0.6 assists per game in her first season with the Atlanta Dream. 

The Dream will now prepare for a matchup on Tuesday at 7 p.m. ET, set to play the New York Liberty, arguably the best team in the WNBA with a 9-1 record.
