Sparks vs Liberty Injury Report
Cameron Brink is out for the Sparks with an ankle injury.
The Liberty don’t have any players listed on their injury report.
Sparks vs Liberty Prediction
The Sparks are down a key player in Brink, which is an issue given the size of New York. The Sparks also haven’t protected home court well. This is also a nice revenge spot for the Liberty after an inexcusable home loss to the Mystics. Unlike past games, we’re not being asked to lay a lot with the Liberty. This is a spot the Liberty should win comfortably, as the Sparks can’t find their consistency and can’t be trusted against good teams.
