The Dream are going to be outmatched in this road game versus the Liberty, despite coming into this game off an impressive road win versus the Sun. New York is on five days' rest and are looking to bounce back from their loss in the Commissioner's Cup game to the Lynx. Atlanta, though they play some defense, will be a perfect target for the Liberty to take their frustrations out on. The Liberty are the top offensive team in the league and lead or are in the top 3 in all metrics. These two teams already played twice with the Liberty winning both games by double digits. The Dream don’t defend the 3 well at all, allowing opponents 41.8% without Howard in the lineup. The Liberty are one of the top three point shooting teams in the league so they will run up the score on Atlanta. The Dream are 5-10 against the spread in the regular season and 3-3 against the spread on the road this season. New York is 8-12 against the spread this season and 9-2 straight up at home this season. Head to head, the Liberty are 8-2 straight up and 3-7 against the spread. The Liberty have many players that can put up points in bunches and will have Atlanta chasing them the entire game. The Dream can’t stop Ionescu, Jones and Stewart and they will get their points. The Liberty are ranked first in offensive rating of 111.3 so take them to win again by double digits.

Best bet: lay the points with the New York Liberty.
