Atlanta at Indiana 7:10 ET Dream (+) over Fever - Caitlin is back! But, Clark still appears to be a bit hampered by her calf injury as her performance of 10 points in her first game back would indicate. Atlanta has taken 2-of-3 from Indiana with each winning once on the other sides home court. The Dream took down the Fever in Indy 91-90 as a 7-point underdog. The Fever have dropped their past two games but, they had won five straight against the Dream entering this season. Things change. Take ATLANTA! |

Pittsburgh at Minnesota 8:10 ET Pirates/Twins UNDER - Each clubs sending out their besthurler and each are weak enough offensively fail against their betters. Pittsburgh’s Paul Skenes ( 4-7, 1.94 ERA) has been sensational but his club the Pirates have not, not even close. He may win the Cy Young with a losing record. Minnesota who is still trying to find themselves will start Joe Ryan (8-4, 2.76) who has improved his numbers the past three years and with the Pirates weak lineup both side should put viewers to sleep. Play UNDER! |

Golden State at Las Vegas 4:00 ET Valkyries (-) over Aces - Motivation is huge during the regular season and everybody should be motivated if in the playoffs. Golden State is an expansion team and little was expected of them and they started slowly but are determined to compete with the established clubs ‘ Las Vegas has become blah after winning two years ago and turned out last season a Finals loser to New York. This year it’s like okay, let’s play, but at times their full attention doesn’t seem on hand. Valkyries already have a 92-85 upset home win over the Aces as a +12.5 dog. Now, they are laying points on the road…DO-IT! Take GOLDEN State! |
