Only two coaches in Atlanta Dream history have earned the league’s top sideline honor. Smesko has a chance to join that short, exclusive list.

When Karl Smesko took over as coach of the Atlanta Dream, he knew he had talent.
The Dream had added frontcourt powerhouses Brionna Jones and Brittney Griner in the offseason to pair with a core that featured Rhyne Howard, Allisha Gray, Jordin Canada and Naz Hillmon. If the roster stayed healthy — even with Canada, Griner and Howard battling significant injuries this season — Smesko believed his team could “compete with anybody.”
