The Sparks are trying to find stability after losing three in a row, including an 11-point defeat to Las Vegas and a six-point slip to Atlanta. Sims has taken over offensively, especially with injuries piling up. Cameron Brink is out, Rae Burrell remains sidelined, and Rickea Jackson is questionable. Despite the setbacks, the Sparks average 81.5 points a game while shooting 42.6% from the field. Kia Plum leads the scoring charge at 22.9 PPG, hitting nearly 40% of her shots and an excellent 85.4% from the line.

Defensively, Los Angeles has allowed 84.3 points per game while holding a modest 2.5 blocks and 9.3 steals per contest. Rebounding continues to be a problem, pulling just 32.5 boards a night. That weakness on the glass could haunt them against Dallas, who’s slightly stronger in that department. With injuries on the perimeter, including a banged-up Jackson, the Sparks’ ability to guard the Wings will be tested again.

Dallas has been spiraling since its only win, a surprising 109-87 blowout over Connecticut. Since then, it’s been four straight losses, including a 94-83 defeat to Chicago and a 97-92 rematch where they couldn’t stop the Sky’s offense. Arike Ogunbowale leads the Wings with 16.1 PPG, though her shooting has been shaky at 34.9%. Paige Bueckers is questionable, and Tyasha Harris is ruled out for this game.

Defensively, Dallas has been worse than Los Angeles, allowing 88.4 points a game and relying heavily on shot-blocking, averaging 5.0 blocks. The Wings crash the boards better than the Sparks, grabbing 35.9 rebounds a game. But with just 8.0 steals and weak perimeter defense, Dallas has struggled against strong guards. Until rotations tighten up, these defensive gaps will remain a problem for the Wings.

The Sparks have at least been competitive in recent losses, while Dallas has consistently failed to close games. Los Angeles has a slight edge in shooting, steals, and has the best scorer on the floor in Kia Plum. With Dallas leaking points and battling backcourt injuries, Los Angeles has the tools to pull this one out. Final Score Prediction: Los Angeles Sparks win and covers 87-82.
