Set The Tempo Postgame: Toronto Tempo Fall to Atlanta Dream 94-87 | Depth Issues Grow Without Sykes & Rice

Another tough one against Atlanta.In this episode of Set The Tempo, Tyler Conium reacts to Toronto’s 94-87 loss to the Atlanta Dream, a game that started ugly, got briefly interesting, but ultimately showed the gap between the shorthanded Tempo and one of the WNBA’s strongest teams.Toronto fell behind 33-15 after the first quarter, battled back in stretches, but never fully recovered from the early hole.The positives?Izzy Harrison had her best all-around game as a Tempo player, Niara Sabally returned to the lineup, and Temi Fagbenle gave Toronto some real minutes before fouling out.The problem?The depth still is not there — especially with Brittney Sykes and Kiki Rice out.🚨 In this episode:😬 Tempo Fall Back Under .500* Toronto loses 94-87 to Atlanta* Tempo drop to 8-9* Dream improve to 12-4* Atlanta wins wire-to-wire📉 First Quarter Disaster* Atlanta jumps out to a 7-0 lead* Toronto falls behind 31-8💪 Izzy Harrison Delivers* 21 points🔥 Marina Mabrey Keeps Carrying the Offense* 23 points🏀 Niara Sabally Returns* Back in the starting lineup* 9 points and 5 rebounds👀 Temi Fagbenle Shows Signs* 10 points in 14 minutes* Best game of her season so far📊 Kia Nurse Shows a Pulse* 15 minutes* 4 points, 4 assists🧱 Depth Questions Remain* Bench production still thin* Toronto missing two major starters in Sykes and Rice⏳ Next Up: Los Angeles Sparks* Tempo have split the season series with LA* Kelsey Plum is priority No. 1📅 Next Game: Toronto Tempo vs Los Angeles Sparks🎧 New episodes after EVERY Tempo game📲 Follow @TylerConium🇨🇦 The Tempo are 8-9 and searching for answersLet’s Set The Tempo.
