Atlanta Dream forward Sancho Lyttle will return to the lineup Tuesday against Minnesota after missing six games to play for Spain at the EuroBasket Women tournament.

Lyttle helped her native country win the gold medal in the qualifying tournament for the 2014 World Championships. She was named the MVP after averaging 18.4 points, 11.1 rebounds, 2.9 steals and 1.3 blocks in nine games -- all wins.

In five games this season for Atlanta, Lyttle is averaging 15.4 points, 9.0 rebounds, 2.8 steals, 2.6 assists and 1.6 blocks per game.

The Dream won all six games in Lyttle's absence.
