Atlanta Dream vs. Las Vegas Aces Prediction

I’m on the Aces in this one. I just think the Aces are the better team and have owned this matchup over the years while the Dream continue to be hit or miss and for my money are the most overrated team in the playoff picture right now. I think the Aces bounce back and get a win here so give me Las Vegas.
