A Kenyan center playing in the WNBA got an unexpected visitor from home. Kenya’s fifth and current president, William Ruto, was in the stands for the Atlanta Dream’s game against the New York Liberty.
The Atlanta Dream’s 93-91 win against the Chicago Sky was anything but pretty. Atlanta squandered a 22-point lead and shot just 29% from deep. Still, there was one clear bright spot: rookie Madina Okot stepped up big when the Dream needed it the most. Angel Reese went down with an injury early in the fourth quarter.
