Scores 16 in defeat Howard posted 16 points (7-18 FG, 2-8 3Pt, 0-1 FT), three rebounds, three assists, one block and two steals over 39 minutes during Thursday's 87-85 Game 3 loss to the Fever.

Impact Howard wasn't particularly efficient from beyond the arc during Thursday's matchup, but she was the only player on the team to record multiple steals in the narrow season-ending loss. The 25-year-old's production remained steady in most areas during her fourth professional season, but she improved as a passer and took more attempts from beyond the arc. In total, she averaged 17.5 points, 4.6 assists, 4.5 rebounds, 1.5 steals and 3.1 made three-pointers in 34.9 minutes per game across 33 appearances (32 starts). Howard will be a restricted free agent this winter, and the Dream will likely make it a priority to bring her back in 2026.

Howard doesn't seem to be in danger of missing Tuesday's Game 2 against the Fever, although it's possible she'll appear on the injury report.
