Los Angeles have a better accuracy both from the field, shooting with 47.3% to Dallas’ 42.4% and from behind the arc, shooting with 34.6% to Dallas’ second-worse of 28.2%.

Los Angeles are red-hot and a mediocre Dallas squad this season don’t seem capable of stopping them, so pick the Sparks for a road win by more than 7 points today.
