Wings vs Sky predictions
When you look at the Dallas Wings, it’s hard to ignore the momentum Paige Bueckers is building. Coming off that electrifying 21-point performance, Bueckers looks like she’s just getting started. Expect her to keep her foot on the gas against Chicago, maybe putting up another game topping 15 points while continuing to act as the engine for Dallas’s offense. Myisha Hines-Allen is quietly imposing her will on the boards—look for her to flirt with double digits in rebounds, giving the Wings a solid shot at controlling possession. With Bueckers dishing over six assists a night lately, there’s a good chance we see the Wings’ ball movement open up some easy looks for teammates as well.
Meanwhile, Chicago Sky’s search for that elusive first win could get interesting, especially with Ariel Atkins and Angel Reese leading the charge. Atkins has been consistently dropping buckets, so it wouldn’t surprise anyone to see her get hot at home and crack into the mid-teens in scoring. Angel Reese, on the other hand, is becoming an absolute rebounding machine—she’s been cleaning the glass with authority, pulling down 14 boards a night. If she keeps that up against a physical Dallas frontcourt, the Sky could turn extra possessions into much-needed points. Then there’s Courtney Vandersloot orchestrating the whole thing—if her assists are falling, Chicago’s offense might just shift into another gear.
Both teams are hungry for a reset, but something feels like it’s tipping toward Dallas. Bueckers seems locked in, the Wings have already proven they can snag a win on the road, and their offense just looks a little more balanced right now. Chicago will make it tough—especially on their home court—but barring a breakout night from their supporting cast, the Sky may have to wait a little longer for that first win. Wings by a narrow margin feels about right for this matchup. What’s your take—will Bueckers stay hot, or can Chicago finally break through?
