Seattle Storm vs. Los Angeles Sparks Prediction

I’m on the Storm here. The Sparks are just missing so many pieces from this game, most notably Kelsey Plum and Odyssey Sims, and the Sparks were extremely underwhelming to begin with even when they were healthy. The Storm haven’t been the best road team in the WNBA, and it’s not always ideal to lay big numbers with them, but I think the Storm are the better and more complete team here and I think they win and cover on the road here.
