The over is 7-3 in Sky last 10 overall. The Dream are 4-0 ATS in the last 4 meetings in Chicago.
The Atlanta Dream are not a good basketball team, mainly because of an offense that can't score the basketball. The Chicago Sky are arguably the best team in the league, and they're on a heater of all heaters, with wins in 9 of their last 11 tries. The line makes sense. However, there's also a possible letdown spot for the Sky after hosting the all star game, having 4 players in the game and basically partying all weekend. Possible sluggish play from the Sky as they try to focus back on the season? Who knows. This is a lot of points. Give me the Dream.
