Both of these teams are entering tonight’s matchup with losing records, and they lost their most recent game. Since both squads are trending in the wrong direction, they are looking to turn things around with a victory this evening.

Chicago has lost two games in a row, giving them a 6-11 record. The team held a fourth quarter lead against the Minnesota Lynx in their most recent game, but they only scored five points in the final period and lost 70-62. The two rookie players for Chicago struggled mightily in the game, as Angel Reese and Kamilla Cardoso combined to shoot 5-25 from the field. Both of these players also struggled from the free throw line, shooting 3-6 from the charity stripe. Due to their lackluster offensive performance, Cardoso and Reese only scored a total of 13 points.

In order to win this matchup against Atlanta, both rookies will have to perform much better offensively.

The Dream have a slightly better record heading into tonight’s game, but they are still four games away from a winning record. The team has three players averaging double digit points this season: Rhyne Howard, Allisha Gray, and Tina Charles. Notably, Howard will not play in tonight’s game due to an ankle injury, which she sustained a couple of weeks ago. The team has been struggling without her in the lineup, and there is not a set date for her to return. With this in mind, the Dream will be at a major disadvantage against Chicago this evening.

Despite the injury, Atlanta can still generate enough offense to win this matchup. The team has scored at least 74 points in each game Howard has missed, which is enough to win some games. However, Atlanta’s defense has been terrible in their recent stretch of games. So, they must increase their level of defense to obtain their eighth win of the season.
