Dallas Wings: -6.5 (-114)

The Dallas Wings have the fourth best overall record in the WNBA and had a five-game win streak in the month of July. Dallas is averaging over 90 points the last ten games, and rank third in points per game and offensive rating. The Wings are first in the league in rebounds per game (39.9), and the Seattle Storm allow a league high 36.2 rebounds per game.

The series matchup between the Dallas Wings and the Seattle storm is split, 1-1. The Storm covered both games, including a +4.5-, and +8.5-point spread. In Seattle's win against Dallas, on June 17th, Storm guard Jewell Loyd had 39 points, which is second most in the history of the franchise.

The Dallas Wings, one of the hottest teams in July, recently got Teaira McCowan back from Euro ball. McCowan was not present for the first two games, and is averaging 12.9 points and 9.3 rebounds in 15 games. The Wings Center averages 1.2 blocks and is shooting 57 percent from the field this year.

Dallas is 3-2 in their last five, and 7-3 in their last ten games. This squad, led by Head Coach Latricia Tramell, has impressive wins this month over New York, and Las Vegas. Their largest marginal win came over the Washington Mystics, 90-62. The Seattle Storm went on a ten-game skid, however recently won two games in a row.

Dallas Wings Money Line (-300)

Seattle is playing well, recently taking a game against the Liberty, and kept up with Dallas the first two games. The Wings will have the addition of McCowan, which gives them more defense, and size. Seattle is only averaging 76 points compared to the Wings 90 the past ten games. Dallas was the second-best team in July and has the third best offense in the league.

These two teams haven't matched up since June 17th, and Dallas is top five in defensive rating. They play big, will be a force in the paint, and mostly likely will make Seattle work for points. Being one of the best teams in the paint, Dallas will have a starting lineup of McCowan, Satou Sabally, and Natasha Howard, who are all six foot two and up. With the way the Dallas Wings have played as of recent, I expect them to take this game outright, over the Seattle Storm.

Arike Ogunbowale O 20.5 PTS (-113)

Dallas Wings Guard, Arike Ogunbowale is averaging 21.6 points in 25 games this season. Ogunbowale hit over 20.5 points in three straight games in July, and in five total games. Arike put up 41 points against the Seattle Storm on June 17th, and 26 points in their first matchup, on May 26th.

In her fifth season with Dallas, the guard is averaging a career-high in minutes (37.3), and field goal attempts. Arike is playing high volume minutes, including 40 against the Aces, on Sunday, and averages 18.3 field goal attempts per game.

The Seattle Storm rank 9th in defensive efficiency and allow opponents to score 84.7 points per game. The Storm rank last in opponent field goal percentage (45.8). Noell Quinns squad ranks 11th in opponent points in the paint (38.8).

Since the All-Star break, Ogunbowale hit this prop three times, against both Connecticut and New York.

Natasha Howard O 7.5 REB (-130)

Natasha Howard, Dallas Wings forward, is averaging 8.3 rebounds in 25 games this season. Standing at six foot two, the forward hit over 7.5 rebounds in two straight games, and seven games in July. Even with the addition of McCowan, Howard has been a defensive force in the paint for the Dallas Wings.

In two games against Seattle this year, Howard grabbed 10 and 9 boards. In July Howard notably had 14 rebounds against Minnesota, 11 and 13 against Las Vegas. Dallas is the best rebounding team in the league at 39.9 per game and allow the least per game (32). The Seattle Storm rank 7th in rebounding (33.9) and allow a league high 36.2 boards per game.
