Tempo vs Dream Injury Report
Kiki Rice is out for the Tempo with an ankle injury. Brittney Sykes is out with a foot injury. Teonni Key is questionable with an illness. Temi Fagbenle is probable despite a concussion.
Brionna Jones is questionable for the Dream due to a knee injury. Te-Hina Paopao is questionable with a leg injury.
Tempo vs Dream Prediction
The Dream can smoke the Tempo as they did twice last month. However, I’m not laying this many points with a Dream squad that’s lost 4 straight on the road and has failed to cover 9 straight games overall. The Dream have not cashed a ticket for WNBA bettors since June 20. That’s almost a month ago. Mabrey has been on a heater and gives Toronto a fighting chance despite the losses piling up. I have to grab the points with the Tempo, but it has more to do with the lack of confidence in the Dream.
