Recent Form Points Toward Atlanta

Atlanta enters this matchup with a strong 7-3 overall record and a 3-2 mark on the road. The Dream have won three of their last five games, including dominant victories over Washington, Connecticut, and Portland. Their most recent outing was particularly impressive, a 109-77 home win over Washington. The two losses during this stretch came against Indiana and Minnesota.

The Dream have been one of the more balanced teams statistically. They average 85.8 points per game while allowing only 79.3 points. Atlanta shoots 43% from the field, grabs 37.1 rebounds per contest, and averages 19.6 assists. Defensively, the Dream contribute 9.4 steals and 3.2 blocks per game.

One of Atlanta's biggest strengths has been its scoring margin. The Dream score over 85 points per game while holding opponents below 80 points per contest. That combination has helped them build one of the better records in the league and gives them a notable edge entering this matchup.

Chicago Looking to Build Momentum at Home

Chicago comes into Tuesday's contest with a 4-7 overall record and a difficult 1-4 home record. The Sky have dropped four of their last five games, with losses against Toronto twice, Washington, and Minnesota. Their lone victory during that stretch came in an 85-80 win over Connecticut.

The Sky average 80.6 points per game while allowing 85.9 points. They shoot 41% from the floor and average 33.7 rebounds and 19.0 assists. Chicago has been productive around the rim defensively, averaging 5.9 blocks per game, though the team records only 6.6 steals per contest.

A major challenge for Chicago has been preventing opponents from scoring. The Sky allow nearly 86 points per game while averaging just over 80 points themselves. That negative scoring differential has been reflected in their overall record and has contributed to several lopsided losses recently.

I like the over in this matchup. Atlanta has scored at least 83 points in four of its last five games and exploded for 109 points in its most recent outing. Chicago's defense has allowed 85, 90, 79, and 111 points during four of its last five contests.
