Los Angeles at Seattle

The Los Angeles Sparks have opened the season at 2-3, and that is despite playing four of the five on the road. They will be on the road again tonight in Seattle. The Sparks are certainly road-tested, and Nneka Ogwumike always gives the Sparks a chance to grab a win. Seattle has been struggling and just doesn't have the look at this point of a top-level WNBA team. The Storm offense has shot 41% or worse in each of its last four games. The Sparks have shot 47% or better in three of their five games and should get enough offensively to hang around here. I think this is a reputation line more than it is reality at this point. Back Los Angeles in this one.
