WNBA Hot Offenses

Scoring Surge: Indiana Fever Lead WNBA Offenses This Week

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.

The loudest offense

Indiana Fever lead the league at 99.7 points per game, 299 in three games, while allowing 270 over the same stretch. The formula has been simple: score first, score often.

Atlanta Dream are next at 97.5 points a game, close enough to argue.

Phoenix Mercury are part of the conversation too, at 89.5 points a game.

The quiet end

Connecticut Sun bring up the rear at 72.0 points per game over 2 games. Every lineup goes quiet sometimes; theirs has picked now.

That is a 27.7-points-per-game spread between the two ends of the table, and margins like that are exactly where weekly form shows up.
