Charles has started the 2024 campaign well, averaging 13.5 points and 8.5 rebounds per contest. Atlanta is 1-1 and will now face Dallas, who is also 1-1 despite having numerous injured players, including two full-time starters in Satou Sabally and Natasha Howard. Even with those frontcourt pieces sidelined, the Wings' 41.0 rebounds per game are the most league-wide. Charles and Parker-Tyus must consistently crash the glass in this contest as the Dream are averaging 33.5 rebounds per contest, the fifth-fewest of any team.

Gray has missed the season's two first games and recently mentioned that she doesn't have a timetable for her return. Despite her absence, the Aces have won both contests while posting the league's fourth-best Offensive Rating (107.2). Las Vegas will face Phoenix, led by Kahleah Copper, whose 28.5 points per game are the second-most of any player league-wide.

Confirmed Lineup: Lexie Brown, Layshia Clarendon, Kia Nurse, Dearica Hamby, Cameron Brink

• Rae Burrell (illness) — Not on injury report

• Azurá Stevens (arm) — Injured

While Brink must continue to improve her offensive game, she's been impressive as a shot-blocker to begin her professional career, posting 3.5 blocks per contest through the Sparks' first two outings. Hamby has handled much of the scoring responsibilities for Los Angeles, averaging a team-high 24.5 points per game on 61.3% shooting and converting 50.0% of her three-point attempts. Hamby will face a formidable frontcourt that includes Shakira Austin and Stefanie Dolson when the Sparks host the Mystics.
