Chicago Brings Improved Recent Form to Atlanta
The Sky enter Sunday with a 9-16 overall record and a 4-9 record away from home. Chicago has won three of its last five games, including recent victories of 96-82 over Los Angeles, 95-90 over Seattle, and 77-66 over Phoenix. The Sky recently lost 96-91 to Dallas and 102-87 to Los Angeles. Chicago has scored at least 87 points in four consecutive games, winning two of those contests.
Chicago averages 87.1 points per game while allowing 89.4 points. The Sky shoot 44% from the field and average 33.5 rebounds, 21.1 assists, five blocks, and 6.8 steals per game. Chicago averages 2.1 fewer points than Atlanta while allowing 4.4 more. However, the Sky hold advantages in assists and blocks, including 2.3 more blocks per contest.
Chicago’s primary strength is its ability to block shots. The Sky’s average of five blocks is significantly higher than Atlanta’s 2.7. Their recent scoring has also been encouraging, as Chicago has produced 369 points across its last four games. The concern is a defense allowing 89.4 points per game, particularly against an Atlanta team that has exceeded 100 points in each of its last two victories.

Chicago Sky vs Atlanta Dream Picks and Prediction
Chicago Sky vs Atlanta Dream Pick
- Pick: Atlanta Dream -10.5
I am taking Atlanta to cover the 10.5-point spread. The Dream own the better overall and home records while holding clear advantages in scoring defense, rebounds, and steals. Atlanta is 15-10 overall and 8-4 at home, compared with Chicago’s 9-16 overall record and 4-9 road mark. The Dream have also scored more than 100 points in each of their last two wins. Chicago has won three of five and has scored well recently, but its 89.4 points allowed per game presents a difficult challenge against Atlanta’s current offensive production.
Chicago Sky vs Atlanta Dream Total Pick
- Pick: Over 177.5
I am backing the over 177.5 because both teams have shown consistent recent scoring. Chicago has scored at least 87 points in four consecutive games, while Atlanta has reached at least 89 in four straight. Four of Chicago’s last five contests finished above the posted total, including combined scores of 178, 185, 187, and 189 points. Four of Atlanta’s last five games also exceeded 177.5. The teams combine to average 176.3 points, and their recent results provide enough additional support for the scoring to clear Sunday’s number.
Final Score Prediction: Atlanta Dream 98 – Chicago Sky 87
