New York Liberty vs. Atlanta Dream Prediction
I’m looking at the Dream here. It’s not often you get the Liberty as an underdog even on the road, but I just think that that speaks to how banged up the Liberty are and how much of an impact no Breanna Stewart has on this game. Stewart’s been out for a while, but her interior presence is needed against a Dream team that rebounds as well as Atlanta does, and I just think that the Dream overwhelm New York inside to get the win and cover at home here.
