PLAYER MATCHUPS TO WATCH
Rhyne Howard (ATL) vs Jackie Young (GSV)
Howard’s two‑way dominance has been central to Atlanta’s 12–4 start. Young is one of the league’s strongest perimeter defenders and will be tasked with limiting Howard’s pull‑up game and transition scoring.
Edge: Howard (slight)
Tina Charles (ATL) vs Cameron Brink (GSV)
A fascinating veteran‑rookie matchup. Charles’ physicality and post craft challenge Brink’s elite rim protection. Brink’s length could disrupt Charles, but foul trouble is a concern.
Edge: Even
Allisha Gray (ATL) vs Kelsey Plum (GSV)
Gray’s defensive versatility will be aimed at slowing Plum, who is averaging 21+ PPG at home. Plum’s quickness and deep range can break games open.
Edge: Plum (slight)
