Sparks vs. Aces Prediction, Spread, Over/Under – Tuesday, September 22

The Aces currently own the #3 seed in the WNBA playoff picture, but that position is far from set in the final days of the regular season. Las Vegas is just 0.5 game ahead of the Atlanta Dream for that coveted #3 seed and would face the Washington Mystics if the WNBA playoffs began on today.

Las Vegas is currently on a five-game winning streak after topping the Storm in its most recent contest. The Aces just have two games remaining on their schedule before the regular season wraps up later on Thursday.

Despite being eliminated from postseason contention, the Sparks have been playing some impressive basketball with wins in four of their last six contests. Los Angeles has excelled defensively, holding its opponents to just 80.5 points per game during that span.

However, the Sparks will be without two of their top four scorers as F Dearick Hamby (14.4 PPG) and F Cameron Brink (9.5 PPG) will miss Tuesday’s game due to injury.
