Los Angeles at Las Vegas

The Las Vegas Aces are off to a 6-1 start and play host to the LA Sparks tonight, who have started slowly at 2-4. The Sparks however, have been in a lot of competitive games. Other than a 17-point loss to Connecticut (May 14), the Sparks have kept their margins of defeat close, losing the other three by three points or less. They also won two games by a combined 17 points. Overall, the Sparks would be 5-1 in any game where they were getting more than 3 points and tonight, as of this writing, will take the court as a 10.5-point underdog. I think that is an overlay based on straight-up records, and the distance between these teams is closer than it looks. Make the play on the LA Sparks.
