Borlase's WNBA dream fading after Game 5 finals loss to Valkyries

Key points

• Golden State beat Atlanta 64-55 in Game 5 of the WNBA finals in San Francisco, moving within one win of a first championship. Australian Izzy Borlase managed just four points and four rebounds in 16 minutes, going 0-of-6 from the field.
• Atlanta must now win Game 6 in Atlanta on Thursday and Game 7 in San Francisco to claim the title. Veronica Burton and Kiah Stokes were key to the Valkyries' physical defence, while Rhyne Howard scored 20 points for the Dream.
• Miela Sowah did not play, as she is on a development contract and ineligible for the play-offs.
