Two of the biggest names in the W take center stage tonight when Angel Reese and the Atlanta Dream (-140) host A’ja Wilson and the defending-champion Las Vegas Aces.

Las Vegas has had Atlanta’s number in recent head-to-head matchups, and my Aces vs. Dream predictions expect the visiting team to earn a win behind strong play from its superstar and reigning MVP.

Aces vs Dream prediction

Aces vs Dream best bet: Aces moneyline (+115)

The Las Vegas Aces will be road underdogs for the first time this season, presenting a clear betting value. 

Vegas boasts a point differential of 7.5 away from home. Other than the Lynx (9.3), no other team has a road point differential better than 3.8. Vegas is also 11-4 on the road straight up, good for second-best in the W.

Las Vegas has won six straight games against the Atlanta Dream and nine of the last 10. Rather than betting on the Aces to cover a modest 2.5-point spread, I prefer the plus-money value on the win. 

Play this to +105.

Covers COVERS INTEL: The Aces own the fourth-best defensive rating (105) and second-best offensive rating (113.9) and net rating (8.9) on the road this season, making their underdog status dubious even against a strong Dream team on the road.

Aces vs Dream same-game parlay

A’ja Wilson has been an unstoppable force as of late, averaging 32.4 ppg across her last five on the road. Wilson has scored 26+ in six straight road outings, and she’s gone for 27+ in three of six head-to-head matchups with Angel Reese. Play to 28.5.

Both teams rank in the Top 6 in defensive rating. The Aces have allowed just 85.1 ppg on the road, and the Dream have surrendered just 86.6 at home.

The Under has hit in seven straight and nine of 10 head-to-head matchups. I’ll bet this one down to 181.5.
