Matchup Analysis
A pivotal Game 5 in San Francisco
With the Finals tied 2-2, Monday’s winner moves within one victory of the title; Golden State has home court for Game 5 at Chase Center after using a starting lineup it had not used earlier in the season.
SourceGray’s hand is a key pregame watch
Allisha Gray is day-to-day after taking the tape off her left hand and exiting Game 4 late; she finished with five points. A prior report said she may have taken a hit to a finger, signaled about the tape and returned to the bench, so her availability remains a key watch for Atlanta’s perimeter.
SourceTurnovers tilted Game 4 toward Golden State
Atlanta committed 18 turnovers to Golden State’s nine in Game 4, and NekiasNBA noted that the Valkyries had logged 21 more shot attempts; Atlanta will need cleaner possessions in Game 5.
SourceAtlanta needs more from beyond the arc
Atlanta made just 4 of 23 three-point attempts in Game 4, while Rhyne Howard led the team with 19 points; NekiasNBA noted only 8 attempts from deep in the half, underscoring the need for more perimeter production.
SourcePick Ideas
Under 149.5 total points
Consider the under at 149.5: three of the first four Finals games finished below that number, and both teams ranked among the league’s top defenses during the season.
Angel Reese points under at an elevated line
Consider Reese under at 15.5 or higher: she scored eight points on 2-of-12 shooting in Game 4, ending her double-double streak at three.
