ATLANTA -- Five-time Olympian and Hall of Famer Teresa Edwards has agreed to become an assistant coach for the Atlanta Dream.

Edwards is a former coach of the ABL Atlanta Glory and assistant coach and interim coach for the WNBA's Tulsa Shock. The former Georgia All-American also was an assistant with the Minnesota Lynx.

Edwards, enshrined in the Hall of Fame in 2011, will work under coach Michael Cooper.
