Atlanta Dream vs Los Angeles Sparks Prediction
I strongly considered the Los Angeles Sparks and the points because I want little to do with the Dream in the favorite role. However, the Dream already beat the Sparks on the road earlier this season by 11 points. The Los Angeles Sparks have had no success on the road this season and are below average at both ends of the floor. The Dream have issues of their own, but they at least defend at an average level and already beat up on the Sparks. Oddsmakers are telling you how bad the Sparks are with this line. I’ll lay the number with the Dream.
