Chicago heads out to the West Coast with a losing record, on a 6-13 spread run. They're favored, though the offense is 10th in scoring and shooting (42.31%), plus last in free throw shooting (74.3%). They opened the second half of the campaign getting crushed at home by Phoenix, 85-65. The defense is eighth in field goal shooting allowed. Los Angeles had a tough time against the best team in the WNBA in the last game. They play their second straight at home. Los Angeles has a strong frontcourt with 6-3 Dearica Hamby (19 ppg, 10.1 rpg), 6-2 Rickea Jackson (11.5 ppg), and 6-6 Azura Stevens (12.8 ppg, 7.8 rpg). Stevens has played the last five games after missing the first 20. She had 24 points and 15 rebounds two games ago. L.A. is 9-6 ATS as a dog and matches up well. Play Los Angeles.
