SPARKS TONIGHT

vs. Houston, 7:30

Site -- Staples Center.

Radio -- 1150.

Records -- Sparks 8-3, Comets 8-4.

Record vs. Comets (2005) -- 3-1.

Update -- Another former Spark makes her first visit in an opponent’s uniform tonight. Tamecka Dixon played her first nine seasons with Los Angeles and was part of two league championship teams. So far Dixon is averaging 5.8 points for the Comets. Houston certainly expects a better effort than in Saturday’s loss to Detroit. The Comets, playing their third game in four nights, shot a season-low 30.5% against the Shock.

Tickets -- (213) 480-3232.
