Lynx vs Mercury Prediction
I understand the Lynx are a great team and even better at home. The Mercury are also banged up and missing arguably their two best players. However, this line is nuts. The Mercury have been banged up for a week or so, and they’ve still won eight of their last 10 games, which includes upset wins over Golden State and the Lynx. The Mercury just beat the Lynx a week ago as a seven-point underdog. Alyssa Thomas has been on a tear lately and capable of willing the Mercury to a win. The Mercury have covered seven of their last nine games as a double-digit underdog. This line is disrespectful. Give me the points.
