Randy’s Pick
The Las Vegas Aces are rolling out of the gate, showing no signs of a championship hangover, and now they're at home for the first time this season, which is sure to be a packed house and celebration. The Aces also just beat the Sparks on Thursday on the road, getting whatever they wanted offensively. Nneka Ogwumike also still remains questionable with an illness. Hard to fade the Aces in this spot in their home opener. Give me the Aces and whatever the line is.
