Mercury vs Lynx Prediction
The Mercury were able to beat up on the Wings without Sabally and Copper, but the Lynx are a different beast. I’m just not excited to back a team without their two best players against the best team in the league. The Lynx have won nine of the last 10 games against the Mercury, and they’ve covered seven of those games. This includes a 19-point win about a month ago. At full strength, the Mercury are a force to be reckoned with. With that injury report, I’m going to lay the points with the Lynx.
