“We are excited fort the opportunity to add AD to our roster,” Dream head coach Tanisha Wright said. “We understand the obstacles AD has fought through to get back to playing basketball, and we look forward to teaming up with them and continuing that journey. AD’s talent speaks for itself, and we think there is no better place to unlock it than here in their home state.”
