The Atlanta Dream is marking 18 years as a WNBA franchise, and much of that milestone traces back to Lisa Borders, who played a key role in bringing the team to the city, according to Yahoo Sports.
Borders' influence reportedly extended well past the court, as she has been recognized for helping create opportunities for women to step into leadership and the spotlight in ways that outlasted her work building the Dream's foundation.
The anniversary has become a moment for the organization to reflect on its roots and the people who helped establish a lasting WNBA presence in Atlanta, per Yahoo Sports.
