Wings vs Storm predictions
For the Dallas Wings, all eyes are going to be on Paige Bueckers as she continues to handle the scoring load for her squad. With her averaging nearly 18 and a half points a night and leading the Wings in assists, you can expect her to be aggressive from the start, trying to penetrate Seattle’s defense and look for her shot or get her teammates involved. Myisha Hines-Allen’s health is up in the air with her day-to-day status, but if she suits up, she’ll be a crucial piece on the glass. The Wings have had their struggles on the road, but if Bueckers gets hot early and Myisha brings her usual rebounding hustle, Dallas could keep things interesting longer than expected.
Shift attention to the Seattle Storm and it’s hard not to get excited about Skylar Diggins’ playmaking and the versatility she brings to the table. She’s been orchestrating the offense beautifully, just shy of 18 points a game and leading the team in assists. But perhaps the biggest storyline is Nneka Ogwumike, fresh off that impressive 22-point performance. The way she crashes the boards and finds ways to put up points in key moments just gives the Storm a huge advantage. If Seattle’s two stars get in sync and find rhythm early at home, especially with Ogwumike’s ability to both rebound and defend inside, it could spell trouble for Dallas.
Looking at how both teams match up, Seattle seems to have a clear edge—especially playing at Climate Pledge Arena, where they’ve been strong this season. Dallas has some talent to make things interesting, but with the Storm already leading the season series and coming off dominant performances, it’s tough to picture an upset here. My take? Seattle keeps rolling, taking advantage of their depth and home-court energy to lock up another win against the Wings.
