Gabby Williams scored 17 points and the Golden State Valkyries survived a furious second-half comeback to beat the Atlanta Dream 67-62 in Game 4 of the WNBA Finals on Saturday at State Farm Arena, tying the best-of-seven series at 2-2.

Golden State took control early and never trailed after the first quarter. The Valkyries led 16-11 after one and blew the game open in the second quarter, outscoring Atlanta 26-15 to take a 42-26 halftime lead — the largest halftime margin of the series. It was the lowest-scoring half of the season for the Dream, who committed 14 turnovers before the break, more than their eight made field goals.

Foul trouble haunted Atlanta from the opening minutes. Allisha Gray picked up three fouls in the first quarter — two of them seven seconds apart — and Angel Reese went to halftime with three fouls and five turnovers. Reese, who had recorded a double-double in each of the first three Finals games, was held to eight points on 2-of-12 shooting, though she added nine rebounds and three blocks.

Atlanta refused to fold. The Dream won the third quarter 19-12, cutting the deficit on a 14-4 run fueled by Rhyne Howard, whose three-point play drew a technical foul on Golden State coach Natalie Nakase. Isobel Borlase’s three-pointer trimmed the lead to six and brought the State Farm Arena crowd to its feet.

The Dream kept coming in the fourth. After Veronica Burton’s fadeaway pushed the margin to 66-59 with 34 seconds left, Howard scored on a driving layup and completed the three-point play at the line to make it 66-62 with 28 seconds remaining. Burton split a pair of free throws, and Williams sealed the win by stealing Reese’s pass with nine seconds left.

Williams finished with 17 points, five rebounds and three steals for Golden State. Veronica Burton and Tiffany Hayes scored 13 points apiece, and Cecilia Zandalasini added 10 off the bench. Kiah Stokes grabbed 16 rebounds and blocked three shots, setting a WNBA Finals record for blocks in a series with 13 and becoming the first player in Finals history with more than two blocks in four consecutive games.

“Finally they decided to fight,” Valkyries coach Natalie Nakase said of her team’s response after the Game 3 loss. “They’re playing their hearts out and that’s what I love.” On Golden State’s defense against Reese, she added: “It’s just team defense, the same thing. It’s the same game plan, it’s just now that we’re executing it.”

Howard led Atlanta with 19 points and eight rebounds. Jordin Canada and Isobel Borlase scored 10 points each. The Dream outrebounded the Valkyries 51-42 but shot just 33.3 percent and committed 18 turnovers to Golden State’s nine, while the Valkyries owned the paint 38-28.

The series now shifts back to San Francisco for Game 5 on Monday, October 26 at 8 p.m. ET at Chase Center. Game 6, if necessary, is Thursday, October 29 in Atlanta, and a deciding Game 7 would be played Saturday, October 31 at Golden State. Both franchises are still chasing the first championship in their history.
