WNBA finals Game 6 set for Thursday matinee at Atlanta's State Farm Arena

The WNBA has scheduled Game 6 of the finals between the Atlanta Dream and the Golden State Valkyries for a Thursday-afternoon tipoff at State Farm Arena.

• The move places Game 6 at the 17,000-seat State Farm Arena rather than the Dream's regular home, Gateway Center, which seats about 3,500.
• The Atlanta Hawks' Thursday night game against the Cleveland Cavaliers was pushed back to 8pm ET to make the doubleheader work.
• Dream guard Allisha Gray said the tipoff time did not matter, adding "we're locked in on winning Game 6."
• Commissioner Cathy Engelbert said the league was "excited to give thousands more fans the opportunity to experience Game 6 with a championship on the line."
