Atlanta has gotten off to a strong start under new coach Karl Smesko. They're outscoring opponents by +4.8 points per game, the fourth-best differential in the WNBA. They added three-time All-Star Brionna Jones (13.8 ppg, 11.6 rpg) to team with two-time All-Stars Rhyne Howard (15 ppg) and Allisha Gray (19.4 ppg) in the backcourt. They're fourth in the league in scoring (83.8 ppg) and on a 3-1 SU/ATS run. Atlanta won its last road game at Indiana, 91-90, as a +7 underdog. Los Angeles has new pieces, as well, but isn't yet clicking, losing three of four. The defense is ninth in the 13-team league in points given up. Their only wins are over expansion Golden State and winless Chicago. Play Atlanta.
