Wings vs Dream Prediction
The Dream entered the break playing well, but we’ll see what happens after 10 days off. The Dream have also struggled on the road, where they’ve lost 6 times. As I’ve said in previous write-ups, the Wings are growing on me as this young group is playing well, is efficient offensively, and they’re as healthy as they’ve been in a while. The Wings don’t have anybody listed out for this game. I’d need more points to consider the Dream. We’re laying less than a full bucket with the Wings at home. I’ll take it.
