Sky vs Liberty Prediction
I’m not excited to lay double-digit chalk with a road team, but there’s no other way to go. The Sky looked downright awful in their season opener at both ends of the floor, and now they’re playing an even better team. Home court only does so much. While it’s just one game, the Sky was terrible offensively last season and showed no signs of progress.
The Sky also didn’t show much resistance defensively. The Sky are 0-4 ATS in their last four games as a double-digit underdog, and they’ve lost those games by an average of 21.2 points. The only concern here is it is a look ahead spot for the Liberty with the Fever on deck. Regardless, I have to lay the points.
