Jones came back on Tuesday following a nine-game absence after reaggravating an ankle injury. I don&#8217;t think the Liberty will want her going all out after she played 29 minutes last night in a major matchup against the Mercury. Unlike the 15-9 Mercury, the 10-14 Sparks are not a title contender and find themselves near the bottom of the WNBA standings.<\/p>\n<p>There&#8217;s also the fact that the Sparks&#8217; interior defense is a disaster. Los Angeles allows the third-most points in the paint (36.6) per game in the WNBA and opponents to shoot 51.9% on 2-point attempts (also second-worst, only ahead of the <a class=\"Annotation-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.cbssports.com\/wnba\/teams\/CT\/connecticut-sun\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Sun<\/a>). Stewart can absolutely have a field day with no one on the Sparks side capable of slowing her down.<\/p>\n<p>When these two teams played back on July 3, Stewart finished with 17 points on 7-of-18 shooting\u2014with the 18 shots being tied for her second-most in any game this season. Stewart&#8217;s points prop for that game was 21.5, and <a class=\"Annotation-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.cbssports.com\/wnba\/players\/26678007\/sabrina-ionescu\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Sabrina Ionescu<\/a>&#8216;s was 18.5. In today&#8217;s matchup, Ionescu is still 18.5 (she&#8217;s coming off a 29-point performance against the Mercury), and Stewart is down to 17.5. Even with Jones back, this feels like too much of an adjustment for Stewart.<\/p>\n<p>Overall record: 47-46, +8.0 units\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Imagn Images There are a pair of contests in the WNBA on Saturday, July 26.
