Atlanta Dream -2.5 on the Line (-133)
Odds correct at time of publishing.
For Atlanta Dream to cover the spread tonight, they need to keep up their great scoring and strong play. They've been on fire, winning six in a row and averaging a whopping 94 points in their last 20 games. Meanwhile, New York Liberty has had a tougher schedule lately, which could make this matchup challenging for them. The Dream have also been playing at home, giving them a slight boost. The biggest risk here is that the teams are closer in strength than their recent performances suggest. But with Atlanta's current form, they look likely to take this one. It was priced at -133 when we wrote this, so a $10 bet returns $17.50 if it lands. The number next to the team is the handicap, and that team's score is adjusted by it before the bet is settled. This is an alternate line, so it is not the main number on the board and the price moves with it. The bookmakers have this as a slight favourite. Our model leans this way without loving it. Prices move, so check the price at your bookmaker before you back it. And if this one does not feel right to you, skipping it is a perfectly good move.
Atlanta Dream to Win (-175)
Odds correct at time of publishing.
The Atlanta Dream need to keep their winning streak alive against the New York Liberty tonight. The Dream have been on fire, winning 9 of their last 10 games, including all 6 of their most recent matches. They've faced tough opponents, making their success even more impressive. The Liberty have also been solid, winning 4 of their last 6, but they struggled a bit more against tougher competition. Plus, the Dream are at home and will be well-rested, while the Liberty are on the road, which can be tricky. The most concrete risk here is that the Liberty have been playing well recently too. Still, the Dream seem to be in a better groove right now, making them a solid pick for this matchup. It was priced at -175 when we wrote this, so a $10 bet returns $15.70 if it lands. The bookmakers have this as a slight favourite. Our model leans this way without loving it. Prices move, so check the price at your bookmaker before you back it.

Angel Reese Under 30.5 Points, Rebounds and Assists (-110)
Odds correct at time of publishing.
Angel Reese is on fire, but the Atlanta Dream have been dominating lately, winning 9 of their last 10 games. They've been scoring a ton, averaging 94 points a game over their last 20. That kind of scoring means there might not be a lot of chances for Reese to rack up her points, rebounds, and assists, especially against a strong defense. While Reese can put up solid numbers, the Dream have been limiting opponents' production effectively. Plus, New York has faced tough competition lately, which could make it harder for Reese to shine. With the way things are going, betting on her to get under 30.5 total points, rebounds, and assists feels like a smart move. Just keep in mind that she can always surprise us! It was priced at -110 when we wrote this, so a $10 bet returns $19.10 if it lands. The bookmakers have this as a slight favourite. Our model leans this way without loving it.

Leonie Fiebich Under 11.5 Points and Rebounds (-110)
Odds correct at time of publishing.
The odds for Leonie Fiebich to score under 11.5 points and rebounds look solid. The Atlanta Dream are on fire, winning 9 of their last 10 games and scoring an impressive 94 points a game recently. With the Dream playing so well, they might not need Fiebich to do much on the court, especially since they have other players stepping up. On the other hand, New York Liberty have faced a tough schedule, and Fiebich's chances could be limited. The clubs the Liberty have played have a decent winning record, which can make scoring opportunities harder. The biggest risk here is that Fiebich could surprise us, but with the way Atlanta is rolling right now, it seems likely she won't need to rack up big numbers. It was priced at -110 when we wrote this, so a $10 bet returns $19.10 if it lands. The bookmakers have this as a slight favourite. Our model leans this way without loving it. Prices move, so check the price at your bookmaker before you back it. And if this one does not feel right to you, skipping it is a perfectly good move.
Rhyne Howard Under 18.5 Points (-110)
Odds correct at time of publishing.
The Atlanta Dream are on fire, winning 9 of their last 10 games and scoring an impressive 94 points on average in their last 20 outings. Rhyne Howard has been a big part of their success, but against the New York Liberty, she might find it tough to keep her points up. The Liberty have faced one of the hardest schedules in the league, which means they know how to defend tough players. Howard has been scoring well lately, but there's a real chance she could be held under 18.5 points in this matchup. The Liberty play strong defense, and with how close these teams are in performance, it could be a challenging night for her. So, while it's a good opportunity, it's not a sure thing. It was priced at -110 when we wrote this, so a $10 bet returns $19.10 if it lands. The bookmakers have this as a slight favourite. Our model leans this way without loving it. Prices move, so check the price at your bookmaker before you back it. And if this one does not feel right to you, skipping it is a perfectly good move.
That is how our model reads Atlanta Dream v New York Liberty. Prices move, so check the price at your bookmaker before you back anything. And if a game does not feel right to you, the strongest move is to skip it -- there is another one tomorrow.
