Alanna Smith is questionable for the Wings with a leg injury. Paige Bueckers is questionable due to possible rest.
Fire vs Wings Prediction
The Fire have covered 7 of their last 10 games, but they’re unpredictable and not a team I trust against the better teams in the league. With or without Bueckers, the Wings are an offensive juggernaut, and they’ve hit their stride over the last couple of weeks. I’d need more points to seriously consider the Fire in this spot, as I just don’t believe there are enough offensive horses to keep up. Give me the Wings and the reasonable number.
