Valkyries vs. Dream Prediction, Spread, Over/Under – Saturday, July 4
The Dream have hit a skid after having a great start. Their West Coast trip did not go well, as the team lost all three games and finished with a defeat in Washington to the Mystics, bringing them to a season-high four consecutive losses.
This losing streak didn’t stop F Angel Reese from voicing her frustration about herself and her Atlanta teammates being snubbed for a starting spot in the WNBA All-Star Game. This could be a legitimate gripe, as Reese is leading the league with 11.7 rebounds per game.
She specifically mentioned two other teammates: G Rhyne Howard, who is ninth in the league with 18.9 points per outing, and G Allisha Gray, who isn’t far behind with 18.3.
The Valkyries had a shaky start to their season with a 6-5 record, but they’ve gotten hot and are moving up the standings. They have won seven of their last nine, moving them into third place.
The concern is the teams they’ve lost to. They have three losses to the Aces, the reigning champion, and two losses to the Lynx, the 2024 WNBA Finals runner-up and currently the best team in the league. They are in third behind the Lynx and Aces, but in terms of competition, the gap feels larger.
