Clark is capable of contributing to multiple statistical categories. When she scored 24 fantasy points in her last game against the Sparks on July 12. -- Moody
Best bet: Aces -16.5. This is a massive line and Las Vegas had a disappointing loss in the Commissioner's Cup final. Becky Hammon gave the Aces a mental rest this week by locking the team out of the gym Wednesday. Even though the Sparks are playing well, Los Angeles is 0-4 against the spread over the past four games in Las Vegas. The Aces also have a history of beating opponents convincingly after losses. Vegas is 6-1 against the spread in their past seven home games. -- Moody
