The Wings (9-30) and Dream (24-14) meet at Gateway Center Arena, and it’s two teams going in completely different directions. Dallas is just 4-14 on the road this season, while Atlanta is 12-6 at home.
These teams have met three times this season, with the Dream coming away with two wins, including an 83-75 win as 7.5-point favorites on May 24th in the first and only meeting in Georgia. The under is 2-1 in three meetings and cashed (169.5) in their only meeting at Gateway Center.
In the most recent meeting on July 30th, Atlanta edged Dallas 88-85 in Dallas, although the Wings covered as a 4-point underdog as the over (165.5) connected. Atlanta shot 52.4% (33-of-63) from the field, while hitting 42.3% (11-of-26) from behind the three-point line. Atlanta had balanced scoring, too, as Allisha Gray went for 15 points, Brionna Jones had 14 points and Maya Caldwell posted 13. Rookie Te-Hina Paopao ended up with 11 points, eight rebounds and six assists in a start. Naz Hillmon was red-hot off the bench, posting 21 points, including going 5-of-7 from behind the arc.
Rookie Paige Bueckers was good for 21 points and seven assists in 35 minutes, hitting three times from downtown. Luisa Geiselsoder ended up with three triples, too, finishing with 13 points, four rebounds and two assists in 25 minutes.
Dallas has lost six games in a row, while going just 1-4 against the spread (ATS) in the past five games. The over is 4-2 in the previous six outings, too.
For Atlanta, it is looking to rebound after an 81-75 loss as a 3.5-point favorite over the Las Vegas Aces, as the under (162.5) cashed. The Dream are 9-3 straight up (SU) in the past 12 games, and the run started in that July 30th game against the Wings. The Dream are 8-2-1 ATS across the previous 11 games, while cashing low on the total in nine straight contests.
Let’s back the Wings catching a huge amount of points. Dallas is 3-1 ATS in the past four games as an underdog of 9.5 points or more. Even though the Wings are defensively-challenged, we have to back the under, as the Dream have hit low in nine in a row.
Picks: Wings +15 (-110) & Under 165 Points (-108)
