Dream to play Sparks in first of two final regular season game

The Atlanta Dream travel to Los Angeles to play the first of two final regular season games on Friday night against the Sparks.

The game tips off at 10:30 p.m. ET from Los Angeles’ Staples Center.

The Dream (12-20) and Sparks split games played earlier this season. The Dream won 75-73 in May and the Sparks won 85-76 in June. Both games were played at Atlanta's McCamish Pavilion.

The Sparks (24-8) are on a five-game win streak and sit in second place in Western Conference standing. The Dream are currently in fifth place in the Eastern Conference and are on a two-game win streak.

After the Dream play the Sparks on Friday night, they travel to Phoenix to play the Mercury on Sunday for the final regular season game.

The Dream can mathematically qualify for postseason play if they win their final two regular season games, the Seattle Storm lose their final two games and the Chicago Sky lose to the Minnesota Lynx on Friday.
