Las Vegas at Atlanta

Las Vegas had a lousy start to the season, but the team has improved quickly under coach Bill Laimbeer, on an 11-8 SU/ATS run. There is plenty of urgency, as Vegas is two games below the league playoff line with just six regular-season games remaining. The Aces are on a 7-3 spread run on the road, as well as 7-2 ATS versus the Eastern Conference. Las Vegas is getting outscored by just -2.6 points per game and they face an Atlanta squad that is beating opponents by +1.4 ppg, yet Vegas is a big dog. That's partly because Atlanta is off an impressive blowout win on the road, 88-68, at defending WNBA champion Minnesota. Atlanta is second worst in the league in field goal shooting (41.5%) and free throws (74.5%), last in three-point shooting (29.8%). The two teams played once this season back in June, a close 87-83 Atlanta win that Vegas covered. This one will also be close and Vegas is 15-3 ATS in the last 18 meetings. Play Las Vegas.
