The end of the WNBA regular season will be full of important meetings between the Las Vegas Aces and New York Liberty. After only meeting once in the first few months of the season, the Aces and Liberty will play four times in August.
All of these meetings, especially Tuesday night’s Commissioner Cup finals, will have major importance and play some role in which team brings home the WNBA championship.

WNBA Betting Odds, Analysis and Prediction for Week 16 Games | MyBookie Regular Season Betting Preview
WNBA Week 16 | August 15th – August 20th, 2023
New York Liberty at Las Vegas Aces
Thursday, August 17th, 2023 at 10:00 pm EDT
Michelob ULTRA, Arena Las Vegas, NV
The meeting between the Liberty and Aces Thursday night will be the second game between the two teams in three days in Las Vegas.
New York, which has trailed Las Vegas in the standings all season, is three games behind as the regular season inches to an end. Sweeping these two games on the road would put real pressure on Las Vegas.
The Aces were embarrassed by New York in the last meeting between the two teams. The Liberty shot 44.7 percent from the 3-point line in the last meeting. Sabrina Ionescu has one of her best games as a pro for New York, shooting 6-of-10 from the 3-point line and finishing with 31 points.
Las Vegas will be eager to protect its home court. The Aces are 17-12 against the spread this season.

Dallas Wings at Connecticut Sun
Friday, August 18th, 2023 at 7:00 pm EDT
Mohegan Sun Arena, Uncasville, CT
The Wings were able to stop their struggles last Saturday by handing Connecticut a 10-point loss at home.
Dallas was fortunate that Atlanta also started to struggle during the Wings’ losing streak, as that allowed the Wings to stay in fourth place in the WNBA standings. Arike Ogunbowale leads a fast-paced Dallas offense by averaging 20.9 points per game.
The Wings’ problem is they aren’t a good 3-point shooting team. Dallas is last in the WNBA by only making 30.9 percent of its attempts. The Wings are 16-14 straight up this season and 13-16 against the spread. Connecticut dropped back-to-back games on the back end of a four-game road trip.
The Sun’s usually excellent defense seemed to suffer from tired legs as it allowed 90-plus points in the last two games. Connecticut leads the WNBA in scoring defense at 78.8 points per game and limits its opponents to 31.5 percent from beyond the arc, which is also the league’s top mark.

Chicago Sky at Atlanta Dream
Friday, August 18th, 2023 at 7:30 pm EDT
Gateway Center Arena, College Park Atlanta, GA
The Sky and Dream are both fighting for their postseason aspirations. The Sky are trying to stay in the postseason race, while Atlanta is hoping to fight into the top four.
The Dream have lost two straight games and been held below 80 points in each contest. Returning home should help spark the Dream, which typically averages 82.8 points per game.
Atlanta is also fifth in the WNBA in 3-point field goal percentage, making 34.6 percent of its attempts. Chicago has been playing OK basketball recently.
The Sky hasn’t been able to string together any type of success to get away from sitting in the eighth spot in the standings. Chicago has lost three straight games and fallen into a tie with the Los Angeles Sparks for the last playoff spot.
Chicago, which is 12-18, will need to turn things around quickly to guarantee a spot in the postseason.
