Stewart, who averages 23.9 points per game, the Liberty have been able to put up an average of 85.6 points per game. Their efficient shooting, with a field goal percentage of 45.8%, has allowed them to stay competitive in every game.

Defensively, the Liberty have been holding their own, allowing an average of 79.1 points per game. With a rebounding average of 36.3 per game and 5.4 blocks per game, they have been able to limit their opponents' scoring opportunities and disrupt their offensive flow.
Injuries
The Liberty have been relatively healthy, which has contributed to their success on the court. With key players available and performing at their best, they have been able to maintain their winning momentum.
Team Review: Atlanta Dream
Offense
The Atlanta Dream have had a mixed season so far, with a 5-6 record and some inconsistency on the offensive end. Averaging 84.5 points per game, they heavily rely on A. Gray, their leading scorer with 17.8 points per game. However, their field goal percentage of 43.1% indicates that they need to improve their shooting efficiency to compete with the Liberty.
Defense
Defensively, the Dream have struggled, allowing an average of 86.4 points per game. Their rebounding and shot-blocking numbers are similar to the Liberty's, but they need to tighten up their defense and limit their opponents' scoring opportunities.
Injuries
The Dream have faced some injury issues, which have impacted their performance on the court. These injuries have led to a lack of consistency and cohesion within the team.
Prediction
Based on their previous matchup and the Dream's struggles at home, the Liberty are favored to win and cover the -8 points spread. In their previous encounter, the Liberty dominated the Dream with a convincing 106-83 victory. Additionally, the Dream have lost four out of their five home games this season, which indicates their vulnerability on their home court.
With their strong offense, solid defense, and previous success against the Dream, the Liberty are expected to capitalize on the Dream's weaknesses and secure another victory. The -8 points spread is a reasonable expectation considering the Liberty's superiority and the Dream's struggles.
