WNBA Projections, Stats & Analysis

Sparks: Tough schedule and poor three-point performances

The Sparks have built a superb driving and inside scoring squad but their three-point shooting has left huge question marks. They are dead last in the league both in terms of three-point attempts and also makes. But still, due to Nneka Ogwumike’s offensive resilience and a deep bench, the Sparks have been able to produce quality offense and have been among the top-scoring teams.

In fact, at this point, it is their defense that has been falling behind as they are dead-last in terms of defensive rating. And due to that, Derek Fisher was replaced by Fred Williams at this point. But it does sound a bit harsh, considering the Sparks have played nine out of their 12 first games away from home.

Aces: How do you stop them

Last season, Kelsey Plum did a great job of lifting her game and she is the reaping award this season. The Aces have perhaps the most intimidating starting five in the league, and they are also the most athletic team. This is why they are unsurprisingly the fastest team in the league with a pace of 81.6 which also has enabled them to become the highest-scoring team with an average of 90+ points per game.

The trouble playing against Aces is that they have a backcourt of Plum and Gray, with Plum being the main enforcer and Gray also bringing veteran offensive talent. On the other hand, the frontcourt of A’ja Wilson and Dearica Hamby is a force on the rebounding/defensive end and in the paint as well. Of course, Jackie Young deserves a mention for her special performances this season.

Expected Fantasy Points Range: 6-12
Kiah Stokes(LVA) had 6 points, 7 rebounds, 2 steals, 1 block in the last game. Center Kiah is an elite rebounder whose minutes have reduced since Hamby and Plum have got the starting role. I believe she will be in 2-6 points and 5-9 rebounds range.
