Tuesday’s Best WNBA Picks & Bets: Dream vs. Aces
(Odds courtesy of DraftKings Sportsbook)
Atlanta Dream at Las Vegas Aces
Despite back-to-back wins for the Aces, something still doesn't feel right. It's been rough going for the team that has spent the last few years as one of the main contenders in the WNBA. Their 11-11 record SU has them battling for a playoff spot, while their 8-14 ATS record is one of the worst in the league.
There isn't a whole lot that the Aces have done particularly well on either side of the ball. They get to the free throw line often, and they shoot well when they're there, but the Dream aren't a team that gives up a lot of free-throw attempts. They allow just 17.6 free-throw attempts per game, which is third-lowest in the league.
One area where the Dream thrives is defensive rebounding. Their defensive rebounding rate is the highest in the league at 79%. They should clean up the boards on any Aces misses, as the Aces aren't a particularly strong offensive rebounding team.
Las Vegas has disappointed ATS all season, especially at home where they're getting too much of a cushion cooked in. Las Vegas is a very strong team, and I expect them to add to the Aces’ spread woes again on Tuesday with a strong road performance.
Pick: Dream +2 (-108)
