The Sparks basketball team is encountering challenges in the early 2025 season, suffering three losses out of their last four games, with their only win against the winless Chicago Sky. A significant issue has been their lack of offensive production, averaging 81.8 points per game. Notably, in a recent game against the Dream, they scored just 31 points in the first half. Despite these struggles, players like Kelsey Plum and Dearica Hamby have shown promise, indicating potential improvements as their chemistry develops.
Plum continues to be the engine that drives the Sparks. Whenever a basket is needed, she answers the call and delivers. She is leading the team in points scored, minutes played and assists.
Hamby had another solid slate of games this week, but her rebounding took a slight dip. Overall, it feels like the chemistry between Plum and Hamby is still in the development stage.
While each defeat has its explanation, the lack of offensive production has been a constant for the 2025 Sparks. They are averaging 81.8 points per game.
Los Angeles is still very much a work in progress, but with Plum in the backcourt, they finally got the guard they've been searching for to lead this franchise.
