Dallas Wings vs. Chicago Sky preview

After back-to-back wins at home against the Mystics and Mercury, Dallas' two-game win streak ended with a loss at PHX Arena. They will try to return to winning ways on Wednesday, but with a long list of injuries, the Wings will face difficulty earning a win in Chicago. However, their better run of form in the last 10 games will be a boost going into the game.

The Wings are being led by their rookie Paige Bueckers this season, with the guard earning an All-Star nod due to her performances. She is currently averaging 18.2 points and 5.5 assists, while shooting 46.5% from the field.

On the other hand, the Chicago Sky will play back-to-back games on Wednesday, having travelled to Washington a day before. They suffered their second straight loss during the game, having lost to the Minnesota Lynx at Target Center on Sunday. The Sky is yet to win a game in July and will hope to revise that against the Wings.

Angel Reese continues to be Chicago's best asset, averaging a double-double figure of 12.6 ppg and 12.8 rpg. However, Ariel Atkins leads the team in scoring with 14.4 ppg.

Dallas Wings vs. Chicago Sky betting tips

In Ogunbowale's absence, Bueckers will see more of the ball and should be the favoured pick for the Wings. Her odds of -115 for over 18.5 points scored are high but not unreasonable.

Meanwhile, the Sky will be led by Reese and should be a favorite among bettors. The forward offers odds of -110 for over 30.5 points and rebounds. Although seemingly high, the lack of mobile forwards for Dallas should make this figure attainable.

Dallas Wings vs. Chicago Sky predictions

The Dallas Wings will look to earn a win tonight and will be confident given their recent records. However, the Sky's home court advantage and recent success against Dallas should see them get the win.
