Las Vegas Aces Betting Preview
The Las Vegas Aces have played only one game so far this series, and it was quite an impressive victory. The Aces faced off against the Seattle Storm and they were able to secure a 105-64 victory. Each of the last three quarters of the game they outscored the Storm by at least 10 points. The Aces had six different players that finished with at least 10 points. Kelsey Plum had a strong game finishing with 23 points, five rebounds, and five assists. Jackie Young also had a strong game finishing with 23 points, five rebounds and three assists. There has been a lot of talk about other teams like the New York Liberty, but the Aces sure made a statement to the rest of the WNBA.
Los Angeles Sparks Betting Preview
The Los Angeles Sparks have also played only game so far this season and they currently sit with a 1-0 record. The Sparks faced off against the Phoenix Mercury and they were able to secure the 94-71 victory. At the end of the first quarter they were down 22-19 but they quickly turned it around because of the offense. The Sparks had five different players that finished with at least 13 points. Nneka Ogwumike had a strong game finishing with 17 points, four rebounds, and three assists. The offense was impressive in the first game, but in this game it’s going to need to be the defense that steps up. If the defense struggles in this game, the Sparks are going to have some problems securing the win.
Shane’s Free Pick
These are both offenses that are good, and there is going to be no shortage of scoring here. The Sparks scored 94 points in the first game and the Aces finished with 105. The pace of this game is going to be quick, and this is going to be a higher scoring game. It wouldn’t be a shock if both teams finished with at least 100 points. Even if they don’t reach 100, this game is going to go over the total. Back the over.
