Chicago Sky vs. Los Angeles Sparks Prediction
I’m on the Sparks here. I just think that Los Angeles really showed something in beating up on the Fever without Kelsey Plum in the lineup, and the Sky are not a team that’s necessarily built to exploit that for Los Angeles. I think the Sparks match up well to negate any advantage the Sky would have on the glass and I look for the Sparks to take care of business here. Give me the Sparks.
