The Dallas Wings and Atlanta Dream faced off on Saturday in a WNBA showdown at the College Park Center.
Atlanta Dream Betting Preview
The Atlanta Dream believe they can find success this season and they improved the team this offseason. The Dream brought in Allisha Gray and there are high expectations about what she can do to help improve the team. A big key for the Dream is Rhyne Howard who is a strong three point shooter and there is no doubt she’s going to try and light it up from deep in this game. In the last preseason game the Sun had no issue beating them in a blowout. The Dream’s offense only managed 68 points while the defense gave up 85 points. In this game the defense is going to need to be strong.
Dallas Wings Betting Preview
On the other side of this matchup is the Dallas Wings who have dreams of a deep playoff run this season. Last season the Wings finished with an 18-18 record and although they only finished at .500 they still thought of it as a success. They picked up their first playoff win. Crystal Dangerfield is playing for her four-team since coming into the league, and there are high expectations for this season. Arike Ogunbowale averaged 19.7 points per game and she will need to be the star player this season. In the last preseason game against the Indiana Fever they were defeated 90-83.
Shane’s Free Pick
The Wings have made it clear they want to push the pace this season and they are going to have no issue running up the score here. I do expect their defense is going to be an issue again though and that is going to be the difference as this game is a shootout. Back the over to cash here. Both teams might get over 90 points here.
