Premium Pick

Atlanta had the offense clicking in the opener, a 92-81 victory at Los Angeles that sailed OVER by double-digits. They made the playoffs last season with an offense that was fifth in scoring (82.5 ppg). The backcourt pushes the tempo behind Allisha Gray and Rhyne Howard, the two leading scorers from 2023. The offense is upgraded with newcomer 6-4 center Tina Charles, who had 21 points and 14 rebounds in the opener. Rebuilding Phoenix comes off an 89-80 loss at Las Vegas. Last season, they were 10th defensively surrendering 84.9 points per game. The last time these teams met it was a 94-76 Atlanta win and this shapes up as another offensive show. Play Atlanta/Phoenix OVER the total.
