The Atlanta Dream are getting healthy and making a playoff push.

The Dream (10-17) lost their final eight games before the break for the Paris Olympics, but they are 3-0 since as they prepare to host the Phoenix Mercury on Friday in College Park, Ga.

Atlanta beat the visiting Mercury 72-63 on Wednesday to pull within one game of the Chicago Sky for the final playoff spot.
