Fever Seeking Revenge Victory

Indiana enters this game against their rivals red-hot on offense. They most recently trounced the Liberty in a 106-point showing. Kelsey Mitchell led the way on offense with 28 points on 11-16 shooting, posting a +15 rating. Meanwhile, Caitlin Clark continues to have an inconsistent season. She dished out 10 assists in the win, but shot under 50% and turned the ball over four times. The Fever need her at her best in this one.

Dream Aim to Maintain Hot Offense

The Dream have been one of the league’s hottest teams as of late, winning 8 of their last 10 games. After falling to the Mystics in a 74-point showing, Atlanta has exploded on offense, scoring 107 and 104 in their two most recent games. Much of their success has come due to offseason acquisition Angel Reese, who has averaged 16.6 points, 12.3 boards, and 2.2 steals over her last 15 games. Rhyne Howard has also been red-hot.

Fever vs Dream WNBA Pick

Both the Fever and Dream are coming off of red-hot offensive performances, raising the excitement for what is already one of the league’s premier rivalries. While the Fever have finally started to come into their own, they face an uphill battle on the road in Atlanta. With how well Reese and Howard have played over the past few weeks, expect Atlanta to clamp down defensively and earn another rivalry win in this matchup.
