NEW YORK (AP) — Courtney Williams broke a tie with a 3-pointer with 1.6 seconds left to give the Atlanta Dream a 90-87 victory over the New York Liberty on Saturday.

Williams had 31 points, added 12 rebounds and seven assists to help the Dream (4-2) win their four straight.

New York (5-2) had one last chance, but Sabrina Ionescu’s fling off the inbounds was off-target. Michaela Onyenwere had a career-best 29 points for the Liberty.
