The Chicago Sky has had to play a lot of their schedule with missing and injured players, including their star Elena Delle Donne, who will once agaon be out for this one. The good news is Sylvia Fowles, who missed a lot of the season, has gotten back into game shape and is contributing nearly a double-double per contest. Three others are also contributing double-digit points. Those four players have combined to miss 22 games this season, so the Sky is still not completely healthy, but more represented on the floor than their record would indicate. Atlanta has been the class of the East at 15-7, but has lost two straight. They had a statement game their last time out at Minnesota and worked their hardest only to come away with a heartbreaking overtime loss. I think this team could be very flat tonight after that letdown. Chicago has already beaten Atlanta at home by 14 points and lost to the Dream here by just two their last time in, so they certainly have proven they can match up well here. Chicago has really slowed things down scoring in the 60s in five of their last seven and playing seven of their last 10 to the UNDER. The Sky has played nine of their last 12 on the road to the UNDER, and the Dream has played four of their last five to the UNDER on two days rest. Think the Dream will be emotionally out of this one, and Chicago has played them tough. Make the play on Chicago and the UNDER.
