Curious who starts for Dallas with only 8 available. We'll likely see Johnson or Harrison at SF for this game.
PF: Ogunbowale/McCarty-Williams
SG: Davis
SF: Gray
PF: Harrison/Johnson
C: McGee-Stafford/Gustafson

I don’t know if Agler sees it, but Johnson can play SF. Her game has been becoming more perimeter. She’s shooting 38.6% from three this season.

Davis is suspended too, so they are down to 7. Maybe
Ogunbowale/McCarty-Williams
Gray
Johnson
Harrison
McGee-Stafford/Gustafson
This has trap game written all over it for me, but given the small numbers for the Wings, I predict a close first half game, and then a Sparks victory by 10+. Of course, my blood pressure would appreciate if the Sparks were dialed in the whole game and make it a route from end-to-end. One can hope at least!
Go Sparks!! |

Davis isn’t suspended until Thornton and Anigwe are off their suspensions.

Sorta like that PHX-WAS game that went the opposite way it was supposed to?

Thanks. I didn't see the bottom of the presser re: Davis not being suspended until later. |

Not allowed to play with fewer than eight. (EDIT - To elaborate, teams are not allowed to play with fewer than eight officially available. They're obviously not required to actually play eight players, but they've got to have eight players in uniform.)
What I'm looking forward to is the possibility of multiple players fouling out; that's always fun.

I shudder to think about Davis playing the entire game at SG. I agree with Shades that maybe Glory can play the 3. Then move Gray to the 2.
PG Arike/Brooke
SG Gray, Davis
SF Glory
PF Izzy
C Imani/Megan
Obviously with only 8, players will have to play different positions:
Arike can play 1-2.
Davis can play 1-3 (none well, but Wings are down to 8!)
Gray can play 2-3
Glory 3-4

I hope the Sparks put them away early so we can get some rest for our starters and allow Brown and Masha to get some run. I believe Masha should be ahead of Chiney on the depth chart but Fish keeps playing her around 15mpg. 🤷🏿♂️ is this game #6 or #7 for Williams? Cant wait to have her back as well, although we're playing well without her.

Tonight is Game # 8 for Williams. # 9 @ Chicago, # 10 v. Minnesota. Back on 08/22/19 v. Indiana.
Agreed, I would like to see our bench get some extended minutes. I want to see Beard back on the court (assuming she is ready), even if during garbage time, to get her wind, conditioning, etc. back |

Sparks better watch it. They have a tendency to take teams too lightly when they expect an easy win. They tend to lose focus and mess around too much in these sort of games. All the teams have good players who are capable of filling it up.

Sparks should be embarrassed if they lose this one.

When did Glory Johnson become a three point threat?

But seriously, Vadeeva needs more minutes. 20 mph minimum.
