LA Sparks vs. Chicago Sky preview

The LA Sparks have endured a tough month with two wins and five losses. Currently on a three-game slide, two of these losses have come against the table-topping Minnesota Lynx, while the other was a 98-67 loss to the Seattle Storm. With that said, both their wins in June (Wings and Aces) have come away from home.

The Sparks have been led by former All-Star Kelsey Plum, who has been a revelation since being traded from the Aces. She is averaging 20.5 points and 5.5 assists per game while shooting 38.3% from the field. Plum was once again their highest scorer with 15 on Saturday as they were blown apart by the Lynx 82-66.

The Sky have suffered a similar fate, losing their last three games to the Dream, the Mercury and the Mystics. Like the Sparks, they have won two games this month (Sun and Wings), both of which have come away from home.

Angel Reese has been the team's standout player this season, averaging 10.8 ppg, 11.5 rpg and 3.5 apg. However, her lackluster performance against the Mercury allowed Ariel Atkins to surpass her as the team's leading scorer, now averaging 13.9 ppg.

Despite the Chicago Sky's home court advantage, the Sparks should take home the win. Although both teams mirror each other perfectly, the Sparks team has enough firepower to blow past the Sky's defense, which has struggled throughout the season.
