Posts double-double off bench Okot logged 14 points (5-14 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 4-6 FT), 11 rebounds and a steal in 23 minutes during Wednesday's 87-78 preseason win over the Sky.

Impact Okot was selected by Atlanta with the No. 13 pick in the 2026 WNBA Draft, and she made a strong impression off the bench during Wednesday's preseason opener. The Dream relied heavily on their reserves against Chicago, as all but one of their starters were held under 14 minutes of playing time. Okot will presumably see less playing time once the regular season gets underway, but she should have the opportunity to compete for a a consistent role as a rookie, especially while Brionna Jones (knee) is sidelined.
