LOS ANGELES — Playoff implications add extra spark when the Atlanta Dream tip off against the Los Angeles Sparks tonight, Tuesday, May 27, 2025, at Crypto.com Arena. The nationally streamed matchup (10 p.m. ET/7 p.m. PT) pits two franchises trending in opposite directions as the WNBA season heats up. Atlanta enters at 3-2 after Sunday’s 80-62 statement win over L.A., powered by Tina Charles’ 23-point, 10-rebound double-double and Allisha Gray’s relentless slashing. Head coach Tanisha Wright’s squad has climbed to fifth in offensive rating and owns the league’s best defensive rebounding percentage, weapons tailor-made to exploit a Sparks roster still searching for interior consistency. Los Angeles (2-3) counters with rookie phenom Cameron Brink, whose 2.8 blocks per game already lead the WNBA. Coach Curt Miller’s frontcourt also features Dearica Hamby, flirting with career-high averages of 18.4 points and 10.2 boards. Perimeter spark plug Kia Nurse is probable after clearing concussion protocol, but veteran guard Lexie Brown (foot) remains day-to-day, leaving playmaking duties largely to Odyssey Sims. Key Matchups • Rhyne Howard vs. Kia Nurse: Howard’s 6-foot-2 frame and unlimited range stretch L.A.’s switching defense; Nurse’s ability to fight over screens will be decisive. • Tina Charles vs. Cameron Brink: A future Hall-of-Famer versus a future All-Star. Charles’ footwork could draw Brink into early foul trouble, tilting the paint battle. • Benches: Atlanta’s Haley Jones and Cheyenne Parker give Wright reliable two-way minutes, while L.A. leans on Rae Burrell’s spacing and the energy of Queen Egbo. Stat Corner • Atlanta is 11-3 when winning the turnover battle under Wright; L.A. ranks last in turnover percentage (18.9 %). • The Dream shoot 37.8 % from deep on the road, second-best in the league. • Brink is one block shy of tying Lisa Leslie’s franchise rookie record through five games. Betting & Fantasy Angle Oddsmakers opened with Atlanta a 2.5-point road favorite, total set at 163.5. Expect market movement toward the over—both teams average 72 possessions per game, but L.A.’s last two contests soared past 170 combined points. DFS managers should monitor Hamby’s usage rate (28.6 %) against Atlanta’s aggressive doubles; meanwhile, Gray offers high-floor value after logging 35+ minutes in three straight outings. What’s at Stake With conference standings logjammed, the Dream can secure a potential tiebreaker and keep pressure on the top-seeded Liberty. The Sparks, meanwhile, seek to avoid their first three-game home skid since 2022 and build momentum before a daunting East Coast road trip. How to Watch • TV: WNBA League Pass, SportsNet LA (local) • Streaming: ESPN+ simulcast, WNBA.com/apps • Radio: 94.5 FM (ATL), 710 AM (LA) Projected Starting Lineups Dream — PG: Haley Jones; SG: Allisha Gray; SF: Rhyne Howard; PF: Tina Charles; C: Cheyenne Parker. Sparks — PG: Odyssey Sims; SG: Kia Nurse; SF: Dearica Hamby; PF: Cameron Brink; C: Azurá Stevens. Bottom Line Sharpshooting wings, marquee post battles, and playoff-style urgency make Dream vs. Sparks must-see basketball. Whether Atlanta’s discipline or Los Angeles’ home-court adrenaline prevails will ripple through the WNBA standings—and ignite search-engine buzz long after the final buzzer.
