Mercury vs Sky Prediction
The Sky have games here and there where they compete, but they also have their fair share of ugly blowout losses. The Mercury are righting the ship a bit and when they’re clicking they’re a legit title contender. The Mercury should win this game comfortably. In fact, the Mercury are 3-0 SU against the Sky, and those games have been decided by an average of 14 points. I just don’t trust the Sky night to night and if this recent winning stretch is a sign of things to come, the Mercury are trustworthy again. Give me the Mercury in a home blowout win.
