WNBA selections and forecasts for Game 3 between Fever and Dream on Thursday, September 18, as suggested by experienced analysts
The Indiana Fever and Atlanta Dream are gearing up for a winner-take-all Game 3 in their WNBA playoff semifinal series, scheduled for Thursday, Sept. 18 at the Gateway Center in College Park, Ga.
The defensive intensity is expected to be high in this decisive match, with both teams focusing on slowing the pace and taking away the three-point shot. This strategy is particularly aimed at Kelsey Mitchell, who has gone under 2.5 3-pointers in four of six games against the Atlanta Dream's defense.
In Game 2, the Fever managed to shut down Atlanta stars Rhyne Howard and Allisha Gray, leading to a 77-60 victory. Mitchell scored 19 points in the game, but her Under 2.5 3-pointers play did not work out, a play that was also featured on the website HQ for the previous game. Despite this, the play is being run again for Game 3.
The total points in Game 3 are expected to be under 153.5 points, a prediction that aligns with the defensive focus of both teams. The first two games of the series averaged 142.5 points, indicating a potential drop in scoring in the decisive match.
Calvin Wetzel and Aaron Barzilai, experts in WNBA betting, have a strong track record in their picks. As Ph.D. graduates from Stanford, they founded HerHoopStats.com, a website that provides insights about the women's game. Their analysis suggests that Mitchell is unlikely to make more than 2 3-pointers in this game, as she has not done so in three road games against Atlanta.
However, for those seeking expert opinions on the best bets for the Indiana Fever vs. Atlanta Dream game, the search results do not currently provide this information.
As both teams prepare for the do-or-die game, fans can expect a defensive battle that could decide the fate of the series.
