Dominique Malonga already looks like a focal point inside for Seattle, and this matchup sets up well against a Toronto frontcourt that struggled physically in its opener. The Storm have opened the scoring in both games so far, so I expect them to look inside early so Malonga can help Seattle establish control around the rim.

Toronto nearly stole its debut despite shooting just 27% from the floor, but the underlying offensive process still looked shaky for long stretches. The Tempo relied heavily on free throws and transition opportunities, and now face a more disciplined Seattle defense that should force them into uncomfortable half-court possessions far more consistently.

The four-time MVP is already taking rest when she can find it. She played fewer than 24 minutes in the season opener, and then cruised to 30 minutes in the rout of the Sparks the next night, scoring 19 points in each game. Wilson should cruise tonight, spending a notable chunk of the night hanging out on the bench.

Cardoso’s rebounding average jumped to 10.2 per game last year in 14 games without Reese in the frontcourt with her, compared to 7.6 in 26 games alongside Reese. Expect a similar number all season long, one that should breach 11 given her overall development.

The Golden State Valkyries leans heavily on the three, taking a league-high 49.6% of its shots from deep and hitting 40%, but regression could be coming after a 32.5% mark last season and no major shooting upgrades. The Chicago Sky, meanwhile, ranks seventh in opponent 3-point percentage and leads the league in rebounding, allowing them to limit second chances while relying on a balanced offense and top-tier defense to stay competitive on the road.

Two things stood out about the Los Angeles Sparks’ leader’s output. First of all, she played 35 minutes in a 27-point loss. The Sparks do not have a bounty of other options on hand. Secondly, she shot 10-of-18. Plum has not always been the most efficient scorer; finding efficiency could unlock new levels of her offense.

Aliyah Boston was also big for Indiana in the opener, dominating inside with 16 of her total 23 points coming inside the paint. That’s bad news for the Sparks’ soft interior. The 6-foot-5 Boston is very active in pick-and-roll with Clark and Mitchell and she’s just as likely to score the first bucket as her fellow superstars.
