Friday is an interesting day when it comes to the sports calendar.
With the Fourth of July holiday looming, today is one of the busiest travel days of the year.
While this could result in many travelers not paying attention to sports, it could, on the other hand, be an important day for those looking to kill time while working their way toward their holiday destinations.
That said, Friday’s schedule features two WNBA games: Washington Mystics vs. Atlanta Dream (7:30 p.m. ET) and Los Angeles Sparks vs. Chicago Sky (8 p.m. ET).
With this in mind, let’s take a quick look at the latest WNBA odds for Friday, including spread and over/under betting trends for both of these matchups.
