WNBA Projections, Stats & Analysis
Aces need to figure some issues out
The Aces started with 13 wins and two losses but since then, they have lost eight and won ten games, which ain’t shabby but not even remotely close to their earlier level. They have lost to even lower ranked teams while sometimes the higher ranked teams have run over them. Still, they remain a strong opponent and their run and gun style will be huge during the Playoffs.
Dream’s tough period
The Dream started with an impressive seven wins and four losses but since then, things have been downhill. They have won just seven and lost 15 games, which implies that they are going through a lean phase for a long time now. Their ability to play tough defense has been curbed a bit while offense has been a huge problem with a key player in Tiffany Hayes being out, someone who could have really helped them here.
