The Atlanta Dream will be facing the Dallas Wings in a much anticipated matchup on May 24 in the WNBA regular season. This will be the first time the two teams will be facing each other in this year's regular season. The Wings are currently 0-3 in the season and will be trying to end their three-game losing stream as they play the Dream on road this Saturday. The Dream, on the other hand, have only won one of their last three matchups and will be looking to grab a win from this matchup as well.

Without further ado, let's dive deep into this article where we will be discussing the preview, predictions, odds, lineups, and injury report of the upcoming Dream vs Wings matchup.

Dream vs Wings Match Preview

In this upcoming matchup, the Dallas Wings will continue their four-game road swing at Atlanta, tipping off against the Dream at the Gateway Center. Up until now, Dallas is still in search for their first win, having begun the season on a disappointing 0-3 note. However, over the week, there has been some significant improvement within the roster. In the previous matchup against the Minnesota Lynx on Wednesday, the Wings lost by a narrow 81-85 margin, just a week after falling by 15 points against the Lynx in their season opener.

However, ahead of this matchup, there are some few essential insights to keep in mind for the Wings. They were outscored by 7.9 points per game last season, scoring just 84.2 points per game to rank fourth in the league while giving up 92.1 per outing to rank 12th in the WNBA. The Wings had a -317 scoring differential overall.

On the other hand, the Dream were outscored by 2.8 points per game last season, with a -110 scoring differential overall. They put up 77.0 points per game (12th in WNBA), and gave up 79.8 per contest (fifth in the league).

Ahead of their first matchup, these 2024 stats should give you an idea of what to expect from this matchup. Here are some of the essential details that you would need to known ahead of this game:

Dream vs Wings Players to Watch

Over the few games played this season, certain players have stood apart for both Dream and Wings' roster. These players can definitely create a game-changing impact during crucial moments, which are necessary to grab wins in such tight matchups. Here are some of the players to watch out for both teams ahead of the Dream vs Wings matchup.

Brittney Griner and Rhyne Howard (Dream)

The Dream's Brittney Griner and Rhyne Howard have been the plus factors catapulting the team. Brittney Griner was putting up 21 points, eight boards, and dished two dimes in the previous matchup against the Indiana Fever but faltered to only five points and getting fouled out in the last matchup against the Fever. Rhyne Howard, on the other hand, is a player to watch out for as she had put 24 points, 2 dimes, and 5 boards in the previous game. The Atlanta team has cohesion amongst them, especially with Brionna Jones fitting in with Griner as the two bigs on the team. Perhaps these three players could be the game changers for the Dream in this matchup.

Paige Bueckers and Arike Ogunbowale (Wings)

For the Wings, they have lost all their last three games despite being in the Paige Bueckers era. However, for Bueckers, she has been silently putting up numbers that explains her No.1 pick in the 2025 draft. Paige very recently put up double-double numbers and has been fitting in well alongside Arike Ogunbowale. However, what the Dallas team lacks right now is cohesion as a group, which isn't helping in translating to wins. However, we should allow this team to find their own footing and expect them to gel eventually as they fit the right puzzle blocks and find good chemistry.

Dream vs Wings Prediction: Who Will Win?

In this matchup, Dream has a homecourt advantage and is a significantly better and sound team than the Wings. They also combine for balanced scoring and have a rebounding advantage, which gives them an edge against the Wings. However, expect the Wings to show improved effort this time. Despite consecutive losses, they have been significantly improving. The Wings' defensive rotations remaining late and a rookie point guard on the road has often been translating to turnovers. It would be essential for Wings veterans such as Arike Ogunbowale to generate transition points and improve their half court offense if they expect to grab this matchup as a first regular season win.

Prediction

Our pick for this matchup is Atlanta Dream winning the game, with a projected final score line in the 84-77 range.
