Atlanta Dream vs. Los Angeles Sparks Prediction

I’m on the Dream in this one. I know it’s a quick revenge spot for the Sparks, but the Sparks have big time issues down the stretch and while the win over the Sun was nice to get this team some get back, I still think there’s a stark difference between beating the Sun and beating the Dream. I think this is a double-digit win for Atlanta so I’ll lay it with the Dream here.

Chris Ruffolo's Pick: Atlanta -10.5
