The Seattle Storm and Indiana Fever meet Tuesday in WNBA action at the Indiana Farmers Coliseum. The Seattle Storm look for a win after winning 8 of their last 11 games. The Indiana Fever look to snap a 4-game losing streak.
The Seattle Storm are averaging 78.8 points on 41.8 percent shooting and allowing 76.7 points on 43.4 percent shooting. Breanna Stewart is averaging 21.3 points and 7.4 rebounds, while Jewell Loyd is averaging 16 points and 2.7 rebounds. Ezi Magbegor is the third double-digit scorer and Kaela Davis is grabbing 2 rebounds. The Seattle Storm are shooting 35.8 percent from beyond the arc and 80.7 percent from the free throw line. The Seattle Storm are allowing 32.7 percent shooting from deep and are grabbing 32.4 rebounds per game.
The Indiana Fever are averaging 78.1 points on 40.6 percent shooting and allowing 88.1 points on 46.8 percent shooting. Kelsey Mitchell is averaging 18.5 points and 4 assists, while NaLyssa Smith is averaging 12.8 points and 8.2 rebounds. Victoria Vivians is the third double-digit scorer and Queen Egbo is grabbing 6.9 rebounds. The Indiana Fever are shooting 34.5 percent from beyond the arc and 74.8 percent from the free throw line. The Indiana Fever are allowing 36.5 percent shooting from deep and are grabbing 34.4 rebounds per game.
The Storm are 4-1 ATS in their last 5 games following a ATS loss and 2-9 ATS in their last 11 road games. The Fever are 2-6 ATS in their last 8 home games and 0-4 ATS in their last 4 games overall. The over is 5-2 in Storm last 7 road games. The over is 6-1-1 in Fever last 8 home games. The Storm are 6-14 ATS in the last 20 meetings in Indiana and 2-6 ATS in the last 8 meetings.
The Seattle Storm are the clear better team, they're playing their best ball of the season, and they just beat up on the Fever. I get it. However, the Storm continue to fail to cover numbers, and that includes a 2-9 ATS record in their last 11 road games. The Indiana Fever are terrible, and they haven't had much covering success either, but we're also not being asked to lay double-digit chalk with them. At home, give me the points with the Fever if forced to pick.
