Just one game in the WNBA today once again, with the Dallas Wings visiting the Atlanta Dream for a 7 p.m. EST game.
Dallas at Atlanta Betting Odds
Only one betting shop has posted a number on this game as I’m writing this and the Wings are favored by 4.5 and the total on the game is 164.
Dallas Wings
Dallas is 1-2 on the season and hasn’t looked all that bad in their two losses, falling to the Seattle Storm at home in overtime and wilting a bit down the stretch against New York last time out after cutting an 11-point deficit to two with four minutes to go, but were outscored 15-10 down the stretch.
Dallas has scored more than 80 points in each game, while being a little top-heavy in the scoring department. Only six players in their last game against the Liberty, and they’re a bit of a two-player team right now, with Marina Mabry and Arike Ogunbowale doing most of the work.
Atlanta Dream
After losing their first two games of the season, the Dream have bounced back with wins over Indiana and Chicago and are a bit of a surprise at 2-2. Still, I’m not entirely sold on Atlanta, as they’re simply not a very good team. Indiana is 1-5 and the Sky are a bit of a disappointment, also sitting at 2-2 on the season.
The Dream, who have struggled from the foul line at times this season, were 20 for 25 against Chicago, which helped them come away with the win. Chicago was an impressive 27 for 28, which allowed them to keep it a bit closer. Tiffany Hayes scored 26 points to lead the team and the Dream were 44.4% from 3-point range.
Dallas Wings at Atlanta Dream Pick
A little surprised to see Dallas favored by 4.5 here, as I thought it might be a little closer to Dallas -2. The total opened at 166.5 and has dropped to 164, although my numbers don’t really agree, as I have Dallas winning 88-84, so will go against the line move and take a shot on the over 164 in this one.
