Phoenix at Los Angeles

Candace Parker makes her 2009 debut in this game and the return of the reigning Rookie of the Year and league MVP will have this place fired up. She may be rusty after maternity leave but her presence alone will spark the Spark. The Spark is 3-0 at home this season having won those three games in ridiculous fashion: 78-58, 67-47 and 82-55. Phoenix is 1-3 on the road this season, allowing 94 ppg to opponents. Yes, Phoenix scores, but LA plays well against such teams having gone 13-5 ATS the past two seasons against opponents that average 73+ points per game. In the underdog role, Phoenix crumbles having posted a 4-14 ATS record as a dog the past two seasons. Meanwhile, the Spark are 19-9 ATS in the favorite role over that same span including 8-1 ATS as a home favorite of six or more points. Finally, Los Angeles has revenge going for them here, having lost in Phoenix on June 19. The Spark is a perfect 12-0 ATS the past couple of seasons revenging a same season loss. LA gets the call here.
