Fever vs. Sparks Prediction, Spread, Over/Under – Wednesday, July 8

For all the drama and storylines surrounding Clark and the Fever, Indiana has found a way to pass both New York and Atlanta for first place in the East. Granted, there is still half a season to go, but Indiana is one of two teams in the conference to not lose three consecutive games (Washington is the other).

The Fever won the past two games without Clark, including a 111-87 home rout of the Sparks on June 27 as 6.5-point home favorites. Indiana put together its best defensive effort of the season at Las Vegas without MVP A’ja Wilson, limiting the Aces to 68 points on 40% shooting.

The Sparks continue to play without leading scorer G Kelsey Plum (23.9 PPG), who is sidelined with a lower leg injury. Los Angeles has dropped the last three games without Plum by 28 points at Toronto, 24 at Indiana, and 18 at Seattle. 

In the first matchup this season in Los Angeles, the Fever cooled off the Sparks, 87-78 on May 13 to cash as 1.5-point favorites. It marked Indiana’s first win of the season after losing the opener to Dallas, as Clark led the Fever with 24 points, while G Kelsey Mitchell scored 23 points.

Mitchell sits second in the WNBA in scoring average at 21.9 PPG, while Clark ranks third at 21.2 PPG. Since June 16, Mitchell has posted 24.8 PPG and scored 26 points against L.A. and 27 points against Las Vegas with Clark out.
