WNBA Hot Offenses
WNBA Hot Offenses: Atlanta Dream Are Pouring It On
Published
Sometimes the cleanest read is the simplest one, points on the board. Over the last seven days, these are the WNBA offenses that have been doing the piling.
Who's piling it on
The most dangerous offense right now belongs to Atlanta Dream: 302 points across three games, 100.7 a night, against 259 allowed. That is a margin you can feel from the cheap seats.
Indiana Fever are next at 99.7 points a game, close enough to argue.
Toronto Tempo (91.5 per game) keep the top group honest.
The other end
At the other end, Connecticut Sun have managed just 72.0 points a game across 2 outings, an attack still looking for its spark.
The spread from the loudest offense to the quietest is 28.7 points a game, small on paper, decisive over a whole week of finals.
By the numbers
Here is how the top of the scoring board stacks up:
| Team | Games | Points | Per game |
|---|---|---|---|
| Atlanta Dream | 3 | 302 | 100.7 |
| Indiana Fever | 3 | 299 | 99.7 |
| Toronto Tempo | 2 | 183 | 91.5 |
| Dallas Wings | 2 | 181 | 90.5 |
| Phoenix Mercury | 2 | 179 | 89.5 |
The fine print
Everything above is counted from completed games in the window and nothing else: no strength-of-schedule massage, no projections, just the scoreboard.
Scoring comes in waves. This is where the wave is right now, where it breaks next is anybody's honest guess.
One to circle: Atlanta Dream meet Las Vegas Aces in their next game, and we will find out quickly whether this stretch travels.
