Ivory Latta's career best scoring effort was not enough to give the Dream their first win.

Latta had 26 points and 10 assists, but her team is lacking in the two things that Bill Laimbeer says are keys to winning - defense and rebounding. Laimbeer's Shock had it. The Dream did not.

Cheryl Ford had one of her best offensive games of the season with 20 points (and 13 rebounds). Tasha Humphrey had a successful return home with 16, as did Katie Smith.
