What happened

The Atlanta Dream defeated the Golden State Valkyries 97-71 in Game 3 to take a 2-1 series lead in the WNBA Finals. Angel Reese recorded multiple double-doubles during the series, setting Finals records. Both teams left the court during the national anthem before Game 1, returning immediately after it ended.

Side by side

Left4 versions

USA Today focused on off-court content with player fashion coverage. The New York Times covered unrelated NBA content about Knicks ticket prices rather than the WNBA Finals.

Center5 versions

Center outlets emphasized Reese making "history" and the "record" ticket prices and attendance, describing Atlanta as a "WNBA Wonderland" with State Farm Arena "more stuffed and loud" than ever. Coverage highlighted individual player performance from both teams.

Right7 versions

Right outlets devoted coverage to both teams leaving the court during the national anthem, with New York Post noting it was "unclear whether that was an orchestrated concept" and that "Atlanta has protested the national anthem before." Fox News Digital and Just the News also reported teams "left the court" and "returned seconds later."
