Atlanta Dream
The Atlanta Dream have been surging of late, moving into the top-five in the WNBA standings. They have won eight of their last 10 games, with the only two losses they have suffered during that time coming against the Connecticut Sun. Here, the Dream will look to upset the Liberty for the second time this season.
For the Dream, the key to this game is going to be balancing their fast pace with locking down on defense against the Liberty. Atlanta loves to get up and down the floor, but the Liberty can make them pay for doing just that.
New York Liberty
The New York Liberty have had an up and down week at home. They set a record for most points in a quarter in a blowout win over the Indiana Fever on Sunday, but struggled to a win over the Seattle Storm on Tuesday. Now, the Liberty will look to secure the season series against the Atlanta Dream, as their extended homestand continues.
In the games where Sabrina Ionescu has played against the Dream, the Liberty have had whatever they wanted offensively against Atlanta. They have averaged 108 points per game in those two contests, even with Ionescu scoring just eight points in their most recent matchup. With the Liberty firing on all cylinders against Atlanta when healthy as a team, we could see another high-scoring affair here.
