NYL vs LVA Dream11 Prediction WNBA Live Fantasy Basketball Dream11 Team, Top Picks and Tips for New York Liberty vs Las Vegas Aces

NYL vs LVA Dream11: The WNBA is in its halfway stages and we have seen exhilarating battles throughout the season. The All-Star Teams have been announced but more importantly, this is a juncture for the teams that have been off to make a big run or they lose substantial ground. And in this game, New York Liberty will meet the Las Vegas Aces.

After a poor 1-7 start to the season, the Liberty did recover and posted some incredible wins, but they are back to their old ways, having lost their last two matches. They come into this game after losing to the Sparks 74:84 despite a 17 points night by Marine Johannes. On the other hand, the Las Vegas Aces started hot, winning 13 of their first 15 games, but they have lost four out of their last six games. They came into this game after an embarrassing 71:102 loss in their worst effort of the season. Can the Aces get back to their old ways?

WNBA Projections, Stats & Analysis

Liberty’s same old issues

For all the all-around heroics she performs, Sabrina Ionescu hasn’t been getting it done shooting-wise lately. She has dominated the rebounds and assists end but teams are double/triple teaming her and she has been made to waste a lot of energy. The inclusion of Marine Johannes has improved shooting but the overall scoring balance is still missing. The team gets cold for long stretches and is yet to figure out a combination that can result in a long winning streak even this deep into the season. The squad does have a lot of potential.

The Aces have lost their early rhythm

The Aces have not been getting it done lately and that is surprising for a team that was unmatched to begin the season. Their offense hasn’t been the same and their pace hasn’t been the same either. Still, they are one of the top teams and have a roster that can go deep. It can be one of those windows where the team is exhausted after applying a ton of energy earlier. How can the Aces pump the engine a bit?

Natasha Howard(NYL)
Points: 13

NYL vs LVA DREAM11 LINEUP BALANCERS

• Dearica Hamby(LVA) had 9 points, 3 rebounds, 1 block in the last game. Hamby is one of the best rebounders in the league who offense has also hit another level. I believe she will be in 11-17 points and 8-11 rebounds range.
  Expected Fantasy Points Range: 10-15
• Sam Whitcomb(NYL) had 5 points, 4 rebounds, 3 assists, 2 steals in her last game. Sam missed the last game and she gives important minutes off the bench. She is QUESTIONABLE here.
• Stefanie Dolson(NYL) had 7 points, 2 rebounds in the last game. Stefanie is a physical Center who can be a big factor but hasn’t developed a high-yielding scoring game. I believe she will be in 7-10 points and 4-6 rebounds range.
  Expected Fantasy Points Range: 13-23
• Jackie Young(LVA) had 10 points, 2 rebounds, 2 assists, 2 steals in the last game. Guard Jackie has been off her game since the injury after she was drilling 20+ points regularly, I believe she will be in 14-19 points range here.
  Expected Fantasy Points Range: 8-14
  
• Didi Richards(NYL) had 2 points, 3 rebounds, 1 assist in the last game. Didi’s main role is on the defensive end.
  Expected Fantasy Points Range: 8-15
• Erica Wheeler(LVA) had 7 points, 3 assists, 1 steal in the last game. Erica is struggling through injuries but is a terrific guard presence. I believe she will be in 9-14 points and 3-5 assists range.
  Expected Fantasy Points Range: 11-22
• Riquna Williams(LVA) had 6 points, 1 assist, 2 steals in the last game. Guard Riquna has not been at the top of her game due to an injury.

• Crystal Dangerfield(NYL) had 3 points, 1 assist in the last game. Crystal has been a decent ball-handler but her production has been rather limited.
  Expected Fantasy Points Range: 8-16
• Xu Han(NYL) had 10 points, 2 assists, 2 rebounds, 1 steal in the last game. Xu is an incredible Center who can use her size well but has difficulty with lateral movement. I believe she will be in 8-12 points and 3-5 rebounds range.
  Expected Fantasy Points Range: 9-17
• Theresa Plaisance(LVA) had 8 points, 3 rebounds in the last game. Therese can make her shots from outside. The bench player can be in 5-9 points and 3-5 rebounds range.
