Houston Dash
HOU play like a team that knows what it is: they win the ball back relentlessly (1.7 standard deviations above the league), built on a core of off-ball runners. The flaw is just as clear: the shots simply do not come often enough (2.1 SD below average). Everything runs through Sarah Hagen.
