The Indiana Fever are averaging 91.5 points on 47.6 percent shooting and allowing 74.5 points on 35.4 percent shooting. Caitlin Clark is averaging 23.5 points and 10.5 assists, while Aliyah Boston is averaging 21.5 points and 11.5 rebounds. Kelsey Mitchell is the third double-digit scorer and Natasha Howard is grabbing 7 rebounds. The Indiana Fever are shooting 39.5 percent from beyond the arc and 62.7 percent from the free throw line.

Atlanta Dream Betting Preview

The Atlanta Dream are averaging 90.5 points on 41.5 percent shooting and allowing 92 points on 49.6 percent shooting.

Dream vs Fever Injury Report

Sophie Cunningham has been upgraded to questionable for the Fever with an ankle injury.

The Dream will be without Jordin Canada due to a knee injury.

Dream vs Fever Prediction

The Dream will have the confidence of beating the Fever on the road a couple of days ago, and the State Farm Arena should have some energy as they get to see Griner for the first time. I’m still not getting enough points to back the Dream. The Fever got whatever they wanted offensively despite the loss, and they finished the game strong. That should have some carry over effect, and there’s a chance the Fever could be 100 percent with the possible return of Cunningham. The line is soft. I’m going to lay the points with the Fever on the road.

Before we dive into the Atlanta Dream vs. Indiana Fever game let’s review the rules for the Draftkings single game showdown contest.

Draftkings Single Game Showdown Contest Rules

You have $50,000 to utilize on five players from either team. However, one of those players will be designated as your team captain. The captain accumulates 1.5 times the standard fantasy points. Additionally, the captain is 1.5 times the standard cost of the flex position.

The remaining four players in your lineup will receive the standard fantasy points. Having stated that, it is highly important for you to identify the correct player for your captain position if you hope to win a large field DFS GPP (guaranteed prize pool) showdown contest.

If you have additional questions regarding the rules for the single game showdown contest, I recommend that you check out the Draftkings website for more details.

*I recommend that all readers review the starting lineups for both teams prior to setting your DFS lineup for this one game slate.

Here are my Draftkings picks for tonight’s Atlanta Dream vs. Indiana Fever matchup.

Draftkings WNBA Showdown Picks

Captain-Caitlin Clark, Guard, Indiana Pacers $12,000

Talented guard Caitlin Clark was the driving force behind the Indiana Fever’s success on the basketball court last season. Let’s review Clark’s relevant player data from the 2024 WNBA regular season to better shed light on my previous statement.

In the 40 games that Caitlin Clark played for the Indiana Fever in the 2024 WNBA regular season, Clark averaged 19.2 points, 5.6 rebounds, 8.4 assists, 1.4 steals and 0.7 blocks a game.

Looking closer at the data just presented, in the 40 games that Caitlin Clark played for the Fever in 2024, Clark averaged a massive 42.4 Draftkings points a contest.

More recently, in the Fever’s opening game of the 2025 WNBA regular season two days ago, Indiana guard Caitlin Clark compiled 20 points, ten rebounds, ten assists, two steals and one blocks in the Indiana Fever’s 93-58 defeat of the Chicago Sky.

As I noted in the rules section above, selecting the correct player at the captain position for a Draftkings WNBA showdown lineup is absolutely vital if you hope to win a large field GPP (guaranteed prize pool) DFS contest. Keep that in mind as you construct your lineups.

In summary, I think Caitlin Clark is the most likely player to post the most Draftkings points in this WNBA regular season game. For that specific reason, I am backing Indiana Fever guard Caitlin Clark at the captain position for this one game Draftkings WNBA single game contest.

Flex Plays

Aliyah Boston, Forward, Indiana Fever $8,800

In addition to guard Caitlin Clark, forward Aliyah Boston was a solid performer for the Indiana Fever last season. With that said, how did Boston perform from a statistical standpoint in 2024? Let’s examine Boston’s game data from the 2024 WNBA regular season to answer that question.

In the 40 games that forward Aliyah Boston played for the Indiana Fever in the 2024 WNBA regular season, Jackson averaged a robust 14.1 points, 9.2 assists, 3.1 rebounds, 0.9 steals and 1.3 blocks a game.

In the Fever’s win over the Chicago Sky earlier this week, Aliyah Boston tallied a rather impressive 47.5 Draftkings points.

In conclusion, I fully expect Indiana Fever forward Aliyah Boston to play well in this evening’s matchup with the Atlanta Dream.

Additional flex plays I like to play well in this WNBA regular season game (Draftkings price noted): Allisha Gray, Guard (Atlanta Dream) $10,200: DeWanna Bonner, Guard (Indiana Fever) $7,200: Brittney Griner, Forward (Atlanta Dream) $9,000.

Fever vs Dream Injury Report

The Dream will be without Jordin Canada due to a knee injury.

Sophie Cunningham is questionable for the Fever with an ankle injury.

Fever vs Dream Prediction

The Dream improved their roster over the offseason and should be a playoff contender, and you don’t want to overreact to one game. However, the Dream looked terrible against the Mystics as an eight-point favorite, not playing a lick of defense in the losing effort. The Fever are the sexy flashy team so you’re going to get inflated lines most nights, but if the Mystics could score at will against the Dream, imagine what Indiana could do.

The Fever looked fabulous in their win over the Sky, and we could see a lot of that this season, especially at home where the place is packed nightly. Sure, the line could be down a point or two, but a double-digit win for the Fever wouldn’t be shocking. Give me the Fever.

Here are my Draftkings picks for this afternoon’s Chicago Sky vs. Indiana Fever matchup.

Draftkings WNBA Showdown Picks

Captain-Caitlin Clark, Guard, Indiana Pacers $10,200

Talented guard Caitlin Clark was an essential part of the Indiana Fever’s starting lineup last season. Let’s review Clark’s relevant player data from the 2024 WNBA regular season to better shed light on my previous statement.

In the 40 games that Caitlin Clark played for the Indiana Fever in the 2024 WNBA regular season, Clark averaged 19.2 points, 5.6 rebounds, 8.4 assists, 1.4 steals and 0.7 blocks a game.

Looking closer at the data just presented, in the 40 games that Caitlin Clark played for the Fever in 2024, Clark averaged a massive 42.4 Draftkings points a contest. It has to be said, those are the type of DFS numbers that I need to see from a player that I select at the captain position.

As I noted in the rules section above, selecting the correct player at the captain position for a Draftkings WNBA showdown lineup is absolutely vital if you hope to win a large field GPP (guaranteed prize pool) DFS contest. Keep that in mind as you construct your lineups.

In summary, I think Caitlin Clark is the most likely player to post the most Draftkings points in this WNBA regular season game. For that specific reason, I am backing Indiana Fever guard Caitlin Clark at the captain position for this one game Draftkings WNBA single game contest.

Flex Plays

Aliyah Boston, Forward, Indiana Fever $8,400

In addition to guard Caitlin Clark, forward Aliyah Boston was a key contributor for the Indiana Fever last season. With that said, how did Boston perform from a statistical standpoint in 2024? Let’s examine Boston’s game data from the 2024 WNBA regular season to answer that question.

In the 40 games that forward Aliyah Boston played for the Indiana Fever in the 2024 WNBA regular season, Jackson averaged a robust 14.1 points, 9.2 assists, 3.1 rebounds, 0.9 steals and 1.3 blocks a game.

Chicago Sky Betting Preview

The Sky won 13 games last season and begin the Tyler Marsh coaching era. The Sky have a young core to be excited about in Angel Reese and Kamilla Cardoso, a duo that showed flashes of brilliance that led to being on the all-rookie team. The Sky had issues scoring last season, so it was weird not brining back their best scorer in Chennedy Carter.

However, the additions of Ariel Atkins and Courtney Vandersloot could fill the void and is also a shot of experience to a youthful roster. Vandersloot spent her first 12 seasons in Chicago and was a four-time all-star, so her return home should get the fans excited. Atkins has been a double-digit scorer her whole career and has playmaking ability at guard. The Sky should push for a playoff appearance for the sixth time in the last seven years.

Indiana Fever Betting Preview

The Fever won 20 games last season and decided to bring back Stephanie White as head coach. White coached the Fever to a combined 37 wins in 2015-16. On paper the Fever are possibly the most fun team in the league led by superstar Caitlin Clark who has taken the league by storm. There’s also Kelsey Mitchell and Aliyah Boston, who played their roles in getting the Fever to the playoffs last season.

The additions of Natasha Howard, Sophie Cunningham, and DeWanna Bonner not only add experience to the roster but do elevate the Fever into contender status. Offensively, the Fever have elite potential and could overwhelm teams most nights. The question remains on the defensive side, as the Fever weren’t great last year. The Fever also has to prove themselves against the top teams to be respected. Again, on paper, the Fever can hang with any team in the league.

Fever vs Sky Injury Report

The Sky will be without Moriah Jefferson, while Hailey Van Lith is questionable with an ankle injury.

The Fever will be without Sophie Cunningham due to an ankle injury.

Fever vs Sky Prediction

The Fever are going to be favored at home more times than not, and we’re going to get inflated lines due to the public. It’s the Caitlin Clark effect. However, until proven otherwise, the Fever isn’t great defensively, and it’s going to lead to failed covers. In fact, the Fever are 4-9 ATS in their last 13 games when favorites of five or more points.

Also, the Sky improved this offseason and will have a more mature team as well. The Sky and Fever played close games last season, and it’s the underdog that’s covered six of the last eight meetings. I get the Fever are the sexy team everybody wants to bet on, but this line is too steep. Give me the Sky and the points.

Indiana Fever Betting Preview

The Indiana Fever need a win to force a game 3 on Friday. The Fever have won 3 of their last 5 road games. The Indiana Fever are averaging 69 points on 40.3 percent shooting and allowing 93 points on 49.3 percent shooting. Kelsey Mitchell is averaging 21 points and 5 assists, while Aliyah Boston is averaging 17 points and 11 rebounds. Damiris Dantas is the third double-digit scorer and Caitlin Clark is grabbing 4 rebounds. The Indiana Fever are shooting 21.4 percent from beyond the arc and 75 percent from the free throw line. The Indiana Fever are allowing 50 percent shooting from deep and are grabbing 29 rebounds per game.

Connecticut Sun Betting Preview

The Connecticut Sun look for a sweep to advance to the next playoff series. The Sun have won 6 of their last 9 home games.

Marina Mabrey is averaging 27 points and 3 assists, while DeWanna Bonner is averaging 22 points and 5 assists. DiJonai Carrington is the third double-digit scorer and Alyssa Thomas is dishing 13 assists. The Connecticut Sun are shooting 50 percent from beyond the arc and 80 percent from the free throw line. The Connecticut Sun are allowing 21.4 percent shooting from deep and are grabbing 36 rebounds per game.

Connecticut Sun vs Indiana Fever Injury Report

The Connecticut Sun will be without Tiffany Mitchell, while Tyasha Harris is questionable with an ankle injury. The Indiana Fever don’t have any players listed on their injury report.

Connecticut Sun vs Indiana Fever Prediction

The Indiana Fever couldn’t play any worse than they did in game 1, and I’m going to expect a better effort from Caitlin Clark. The problem is it may not be enough. The Fever have fallen off a cliff defensively these last couple of weeks, and it’s led to spotty results. The Fever are also 2-8 ATS in their last 10 games when underdogs of 5 or more points. The Connecticut Sun have covered each of their last 6 games when favorites of 5 or more points. I’d love to see a home playoff game in Indiana with Clark going crazy, but there’s a lot leaning toward a comfortable Sun victory. I’ll lay the buckets with Connecticut.

Indiana Fever Betting Preview

The Indiana Fever look for a win after splitting their last 8 games. The Fever have won 3 of their last 4 road games.

Kelsey Mitchell is averaging 19.2 points and 1.8 assists, while Caitlin Clark is averaging 19.2 points and 5.7 rebounds.

The Connecticut Sun are shooting 32.7 percent from beyond the arc and 75.3 percent from the free throw line. The Connecticut Sun are allowing 31.3 percent shooting from deep and are grabbing 33.5 rebounds per game.

Connecticut Sun vs Indiana Fever Injury Report

The Connecticut Sun will be without Tiffany Mitchell. The Indiana Fever don’t have any players listed on their injury report.

Connecticut Sun vs Indiana Fever Prediction

The Indiana Fever are a dangerous team in a short series because of Clark, and oddsmakers are giving them the best chance at a first round upset. The Fever also beat the Sun a month ago as 4 point underdogs. The problem here is the Fever have cooled off these last couple of weeks and the playoffs are a different beast. The Fever are still young, while the Sun are stacked with veterans who have not only been in the playoffs but have had success. I’d need an extra bucket or two to pull the trigger with the road team. Give me the Sun and the soft line.

Here are my Draftkings picks for tomorrow afternoon’s Connecticut Sun vs. Indiana Fever matchup.

Draftkings WNBA Showdown Picks

Captain-Alyssa Thomas, Forward, Connecticut Sun $9,200

How important has talented forward Alyssa Thomas been to the Connecticut Sun this season? Let’s review Thomas’s relevant game data to answer that question.

In the 40 games that Alyssa Thomas played for the Connecticut Sun in the 2024 WNBA regular season, Thomas averaged a robust 10.6 points, 8.4 rebounds, 7.9 assists, 1.7 steals, and 0.5 blocks a game.

Looking closer at the data just presented, in the 40 games that Alyssa Thomas played for the Connecticut Sun in the 2024 WNBA regular season, Thomas averaged an impressive 35.9 Draftkings points a game.

More recently, in the Minnesota Lynx’s 78-76 victory over the Connecticut Sun four days ago, Alyssa Thomas played exceptionally well. Let me be more specific. In the Sun’s loss to the Lynx just mentioned, Thomas tallied 18 points, eight rebounds, ten assists, and two steals.

From a general matchup perspective, I like Alyssa Thomas’s chances of playing at a high level in this game. Why? Alyssa Thomas will face an Indiana Fever defense that has struggled on the defensive side of the basketball all season.

Through 40 games played in the 2024 WNBA regular season, the Indiana Fever are ranked an abysmal 11th in total team defensive rating (107.5), tenth in total opponent fast break points allowed a game (11.3), and ninth in total points allowed off turnovers a game (16.7). What did we learn from the data just presented? Clearly, the Indiana Fever are not a good defensive basketball team entering tomorrow afternoon’s first game of the 2024 WNBA playoffs.

I fully expect Alyssa Thomas to continue her outstanding play versus a vulnerable Indiana Fever defense tomorrow afternoon. For that specific reason, I am rolling with Alyssa Thomas at the captain position for this one game WNBA DFS Showdown slate.

Flex Plays

Caitlin Clark, Guard, Indiana Fever $10,400

Indiana Fever rookie point guard Caitlin Clark has wasted little time showing basketball fans that she belongs in the WNBA. Let’s review Clark’s player data from the 2024 WNBA regular season to better shed light on my previous statement.

In the 40 games that Indiana Fever guard Caitlin Clark played for the Indiana Fever this season, Clark averaged 19.2 points, 5.7 rebounds, 8.4 assists, 1.3 steals, and 0.7 blocks a game.

Additional flex plays I like in this WNBA matchup (Draftkings price noted): Brionna Jones, Forward (Connecticut Sun) $8,000: Aliyah Boston, Forward (Indiana Fever) $8,600: DeWanna Bonner, Guard (Connecticut Sun) $7,400.

The Washington Mystics are shooting 36.7 percent from beyond the arc and 76 percent from the free throw line. The Washington Mystics allowing 33.2 percent shooting from deep and are grabbing 32 rebounds per game.

Washington Mystics vs Indiana Fever Injury Report

The Indiana Fever don’t have any players listed on their injury report. The Washington Mystics will be without Aaliyah Edwards and Shakira Austin.

Washington Mystics vs Indiana Fever Prediction

While nothing has been announced yet, this line tells me the Indiana Fever are going to sit key players with the sixth seed locked up. The Fever have nothing to play for in this game. Meanwhile, the Washington Mystics are competing with the Sky and Dream for the eighth seed and should be supported by a decent crowd. The Mystics have also covered 7 of their last 10 games, so they’re a team you should be backing anyway. Give me the Mystics.

The Dallas Wings need a win to snap a 7-game losing streak. The Wings haven’t won a road game since May 26.

Indiana Fever vs Dallas Wings Injury Report

The Dallas Wings will be without Stephanie Soares. The Indiana Fever don’t have any players listed on their injury report.

Indiana Fever vs Dallas Wings Prediction

The Dallas Wings have anything to play for, and they look like it as they don’t play a lick of defense, they’ve lost 7 straight games, and they’ve failed to cover 7 of their last 10 games. The Indiana Fever plays their best ball at home, need a win to hold onto the sixth seed, and they scored 100 points against the Wings earlier this month. It’s a decent sized number, but the Fever have the offense to get whatever they want against a Wings side that plays with little effort most nights. I’ll lay the points with the Fever.

Neither the Indiana Fever nor Las Vegas Aces have a player on their injury report.

Indiana Fever vs Las Vegas Aces Prediction

You’d think the Indiana Fever will be better prepared given they just played the Aces on Wednesday, but that game resulted in an 11-point loss. The Aces and Fever have played 3 times this season, and every game has been a double-digit win for Las Vegas. With wins in 6 of their last 8 games, the Aces are showing signs of returning to the team we expect to see, and they need to keep it up to keep that fourth seed and home court in the first round. The Fever have to prove they can compete with the Aces. Until then, give me Vegas and the chalk.

Neither the Indiana Fever nor Las Vegas Aces have a player on their injury reports.

Indiana Fever vs Las Vegas Aces Prediction

The Indiana Fever have been one of the best teams over the last month, and you know the crowd will be out in full force for this one. The problem is, it looks like the Las Vegas Aces are getting their act together with wins in 5 of their last 7 games, and they’ve covered 5 straight games as well. The Aces and Fever have met twice this season, and both were 19 point wins for Las Vegas. I’d need an extra bucket or two to pull the trigger with the Fever. Give me the Aces and the small chalk.

Indiana Fever vs Atlanta Dream Prediction

The Indiana Fever have been on fire since the Olympic break, and there’s no reason to think that stops here. The Atlanta Dream cant score the basketball, they’re dealing with injuries, and they’re 5-12 SU on the road this season. The Fever are 3-0 SU and 3-0 ATS against the Dream this season. The line is somewhat reasonable, and there’s no reason to think the Fever cant get it done given their current form. Give me the Fever.

Indiana Fever vs Minnesota Lynx Prediction

The Minnesota Lynx are going to be given the edge because of how they’ve played all season, and they beat the Fever by 10 points two weeks ago. However, the Indiana Fever have caught fire in the second half, which includes 5 straight wins overall and 5 straight wins at home. The Fever are a young team that’s rolling with confidence, and it’s hard to step in front of them right now. The Lynx have seen 6 of their 9 losses come on the road. Give me the free bucket with the Fever.

Before we dive into the Los Angeles Sparks vs. Indiana Fever game let’s review the rules for the Draftkings single game showdown contest.

Draftkings Single Game Showdown Contest Rules

You have $50,000 to utilize on five players from either team. However, one of those players will be designated as your team captain. The captain accumulates 1.5 times the standard fantasy points. Additionally, the captain is 1.5 times the standard cost of the flex position.

The remaining four players in your lineup will receive the standard fantasy points. Having stated that, it is highly important for you to identify the correct player for your captain position if you hope to win a large field DFS GPP (guaranteed prize pool) showdown contest.

If you have additional questions regarding the rules for the single game showdown contest, I recommend that you check out the Draftkings website for more details.

*I recommend that all readers review the starting lineups for both teams prior to setting your DFS lineup for this one game slate.

Here are my Draftkings picks for this evening’s Los Angeles Sparks vs. Indiana Fever matchup.

Draftkings WNBA Showdown Picks

Captain-Caitlin Clark, Guard, Indiana Fever $11,000

Indiana Fever rookie point guard Caitlin Clark has wasted little time showing basketball fans that she belongs in the WNBA. Let’s take a look at Clark’s recent statistical data to better shed light on my previous statement.

In the 33 games that Indiana Fever guard Caitlin Clark has played for the Fever this season, Clark is averaging 18.7 points, 5.6 rebounds, 8.4 assists, 1.4 steals, and 0.8 blocks a game.

Looking closer at the data just presented, in the 33 games that Caitlin Clark has played for the Indiana Fever in the 2024 WNBA regular season, Clark has tallied a robust 42.1 Draftkings points a game.

More recently, in the Indiana Fever’s 100-93 victory over the Dallas Wings three days ago, Caitlin Clark certainly played at a high level. Clark accumulated a whopping 28 points, four rebounds, and 12 assists in the Fever’s win over the Wings.

From a general matchup perspective, I like Clark’s matchup in this WNBA regular season contest. Why? Indiana point guard Caitlin Clark will face a Los Angeles Sparks defense that has struggled on the defensive side of the basketball all season.

Through 33 games played in the 2024 WNBA regular season, the Los Angeles Sparks are currently ranked a dreadful tenth in total team defensive rating (106.1), ninth in total opponent fast break points allowed a game (10.6), and 11th in total points allowed in the paint a game (38.2)

In my opinion, Indiana Fever point guard Caitlin Clark is the most likely player to post the most Draftkings points in this evening’s WNBA regular season game. For that specific reason, I am rolling with Caitlin Clark as my captain for this one game WNBA DFS Showdown slate.

Flex Plays

Dearica Hamby, Forward, Los Angeles Sparks $9,200

Talented Los Angeles forward Dearica Hamby has been one of the few bright spots for the Los Angeles Sparks in the 2024 WNBA regular season.

In the 32 games that forward Dearica Hamby has played for the Los Angeles Sparks this season, Hamby has averaged an impressive 17.5 points, 9.8 rebounds, 3.4 assists, and 1.5 steals a game.

I mentioned earlier in this article that the Sparks have not been playing good defense in 2024. Well, neither has the Indiana Fever. The Fever enter tonight’s game as the 11th ranked team in the WNBA in total team defensive rating. Considering the WNBA only has 12 teams in the entire league I think it’s fair to say that the Indiana Fever are currently not a good defensive basketball team.

Additional flex plays I like in this WNBA matchup (Draftkings price noted): NaLyssa Smith, Forward (Indiana Fever) $7,800: Aliyah Boston, Forward (Indiana Fever) $9,600: Rickea Jackson, Forward (Los Angeles Sparks) $8,400.

Indiana Fever vs Los Angeles Sparks Prediction

The Los Angeles Sparks are 11-3 ATS in their last 14 games as a double-digit underdog, and this is the biggest favorite the Fever have been since 2015. There’s reason to consider the Sparks and free points. However, the Sparks have been getting their bell rung over the last month or so, and they remain the most injured team in the league. The Indiana Fever have caught fire in the second half, and they’re 8-2 ATS in their last 10 games. The Fever also needs to keep winning to keep their sixth seed. Big number, but I’m not stepping in front of the Fever.

Dallas Wings vs Indiana Fever Injury Report

The Indiana Fever don’t have any players listed on their injury report. Stephanie Soares is probable for the Wings despite a knee issue.

Dallas Wings vs Indiana Fever Prediction

I have no idea what to expect from the Wings, so this isn’t a game I’d touch personally. One minute the Wings don’t play a lick of defense and the losses are out of control. Now, the Wings have won 3 straight games and are two games out of a playoff spot. So I’ll just go with the team that’s been more consistent and is on a heater themselves, with wins in 7 of their last 9 games. Give me the Fever and the somewhat reasonable number.

Chicago Sky vs Indiana Fever Prediction

The Indiana Fever have caught fire in the second half of the season as they’re moving up in the standings and have covered 7 of their last 10 games. The Chicago Sky can’t catch a break and could still be without their top scorer in Chennedy Carter. The line is what it is for a reason. With that said, this line does feel a bit rich. The Fever have seen 11 of their 16 loses come on the road, and the Sky are still a scrappy team that’s fighting for its playoff life. Each of the Sky’s last 3 games have been decided by 4 or fewer points. Carter or not, I expect the Sky to compete. Give me the points.

Katie Lou Samuelson is questionable for the Fever due to personal reasons. Tiffany Mitchell is questionable for the Sun due to an illness.

Indiana Fever vs Connecticut Sun Prediction

The Connecticut Sun are getting the benefit of the doubt because of what they’ve done over the course of the season, and they’re 3-0 SU against the Fever this season. However, the Fever are playing confident ball as of late, and it feels like the value is with them in the underdog role, especially at home where 8 of their 13 wins have come. The Sun have covered just 3 of their last 9 games, while the Fever have covered 6 of their last 9 games. Give me the Fever and the free bucket in a game they could win outright.

Atlanta Dream vs Indiana Fever Prediction

This line is a bit strange. Yes, the Fever has had more success this season and have won both meetings this year against the Dream. However, the Dream are enjoying their best stretch of basketball with wins in 3 of their last 4 games, and they find themselves just a half a game out of a playoff spot. The Fever aren’t the same team on the road, where they’re 5-10 SU. The Dream have seen 6 of their 10 wins come at home. The Dream are 7-1-2 ATS in their last 10 games overall. With playoffs now a possibility, the Dream at home and the free bucket has value. You’re going to see a motivated team.
