Liberty vs. Sparks Prediction, Spread, Over/Under – Sunday, June 21

This is the first meeting between the Liberty and Sparks this campaign, but they’ve battled 53 times in the past. The Liberty hold a 30-23 series advantage, including victories in seven of the last eight.

New York has seemingly picked up where it left off, as the last three seasons came with a combined 91-33 record, two trips to the WNBA Finals, and one championship. Under new head coach Chris DeMarco, the Liberty haven’t skipped a beat and are 11-5, good for the No. 2 seed out East.

The Liberty thrive on the offensive end, boasting a 112.2 rating that’s their highest in franchise history. A whopping five players are scoring in double figures each night, spearheaded by F Breanna Stewart’s 19.5 PPG. 

On the other side of the court, it’s been a down handful of years for a Sparks organization that hasn’t qualified for the postseason since 2020. The club is just 7-8 under head coach Lynne Roberts this year, including a middling 5-5 record in the last 10 outings. 

For Los Angeles, it might be time to get off the snide. The club’s top three scorers — guard Kelsey Plum and forwards Nneka Ogwumike and Dearica Hamby — have a combined average age of just under 33 years old. 

The two squads will face off again on July 28 and August 13, with the contests taking place in Los Angeles and New York, sequentially.
