Atlanta at Las Vegas

Premium Pick

Atlanta can clinch the No. 2 seed with a win over the Aces or with a Washington loss to Minnesota. The Dream's game starts an hour before the Mystics' game, so Atlanta will have the incentive to win this game against Las Vegas, which is in a letdown spot after missing the playoffs with a loss to Dallas on Friday. The Dream has been a big moneymaker this season with a 22-11 ATS record, and it is 7-1 ATS its last eight road contests. Atlanta has won both meetings this year, including 109-100 on August 7. The Aces have one of the worst defenses in the league allowing 86.8 points per game, and that's when they were playing for something. Atlanta had won six in a row before losing at Phoenix on Friday, but the Dream is 36-15-1 ATS its last 52 games with one day of rest dating to last season. Play the Dream.
