Premium Pick

Phoenix is still without star Brittney Griner (ankle injury), but has plenty of depth and offensive talent. Star guard Diana Taurasi had 34 points against the Indiana Fever last week. Taurasi is sixth in the league in scoring, averaging 18.8 points per game. Phoenix is 35-19 ATS away against teams getting outrebounded by 3+ boards per game. They are also 21-8 OVER the total on the road, as well as 27-16 OVER after allowing 75+ points. They are a dog to an Atlanta squad with a losing record that has lost three of four. Atlanta is not a strong defensive team, off a 100-96 loss at Washington, part of a 6-1 run OVER the total. Atlanta is 18-9 OVER the total against the Western conference. The Dream likes to run at home but is 15-25 ATS against opponents averaging 62+ shots per game, as well as 3-12 ATS after allowing 75 points or more in four straight contests. Grab the dog in a close, uptempo offensive show. Play Phoenix and the OVER.
