Atlanta Dream vs. Dallas Wings Analysis
Coming into this Dream vs Wings tilt, both of these teams sit at .500 or worse on the WNBA season. The Dream enters at 5-5. Though they have won three straight games and sit in fifth place in the league standings. Dallas, meanwhile, is 5-6 on the year and they sit in seventh place in the standings entering this week’s action.
Atlanta Dream Performance Recap and Analysis
Looking at recent WNBA scores, it is hard not to be impressed by the level of play exhibited by the Atlanta Dream. They have won three games in a row, all on the road. Including wins over two of the top-three teams in the league in the Connecticut Sun and New York Liberty. The combination of pace and physicality that the Dream bring offensively has worked in their favor, and could work in their favor again here.
Key Injuries
On the injury front, there is only one key name on the injury report for the Dream entering this contest. Guard Aari McDonald is set to miss this contest, as she has been out since early June with a torn labrum.
Betting Trends to Know
So far this season, the Dream are 5-5 straight up, but they are above .500 against the spread at 6-4. They have also been one of the most exciting WNBA teams relative to expectations in the totals market. Atlanta has gone over the total in seven of their 10 games for the year.
Dallas Wings Performance Recap and Analysis
The Dallas Wings are one of the most explosive teams in the WNBA today. But that explosive nature has not translated to as many wins as they’d like, as they sit just below .500 and in the bottom-half of the WNBA standings entering Tuesday. Dallas is allowing the most points in the WNBA so far this season at 86.6 points per game, something that will need to change if they are going to win this contest.
Key Injuries
On the injury front for the Wings, Diamond DeShields is still out with a knee injury that has prevented her from suiting up just yet this season. Center Teaira McCowan is done with her Eurobasket commitments for the Turkish national team, but is unlikely to play after traveling back to the states from Europe yesterday.
Betting Trends to Know
So far this season, the Wings are 5-6 straight up, but they are just 3-7-1 against the spread on the year thus far. They have seen the majority of their games go over the total, as six of their 11 games in 2023 have gone over.
Atlanta Dream vs. Dallas Wings Betting Picks
- Moneyline: Atlanta Dream (+140)
Our first Dream vs Wings prediction is for the Dream to win their fourth straight road game on the moneyline. Atlanta is playing some truly impressive basketball on both ends of the floor, and they should continue to do just that against the defensively limited Wings.
- Over/Under: Over 169.5
Expect this game between Atlanta and Dallas to go over the total of 169.5 points on Tuesday night. Dallas has the worst defense in the WNBA, but can also do plenty of scoring of their own. We should see a fast-paced and high-scoring affair in Arlington.
- Spread: Dream +3.5
It stands to reason that if our previous Dream vs Wings prediction was for the Dream to win on the moneyline, that we will take them to cover the spread as an underdog as well. Dallas has been abysmal against the spread this season, and that trend should continue.
Atlanta Dream vs. Dallas Wings Prediction
- WNBA Pick: Dream +3.5
The most highly recommended of our three WNBA picks for this contest is for the Atlanta Dream to cover the spread as an underdog on Tuesday night. They could very well win this game outright, as they should be able to keep up with the Wings offensively, while their physicality will make the ultimate difference.
