Phoenix Mercury vs Dallas Wings Injury Report

The Phoenix Mercury will continue to be without Brittney Griner due to a toe injury. Sug Sutton is questionable with an elbow injury. The Dallas Wings will be without Jaelyn Brown, Natasha Howard and Satou Sabally.

Phoenix Mercury vs Dallas Wings Prediction

The Dallas Wings aren’t shooting the ball well enough to be trusted against good teams, especially on the road. The Wings are also banged up as they’re without Brown, Howard and Sabally. The Phoenix Mercury have had a fantastic week and their offense is rolling as they’ve scored 80 or more points in all 4 games. Third in points per game and second in three point percentage, it’s hard to turn down the Mercury at home with the soft line. The Mercury are a team to watch right now, especially once Griner returns, as this feels like a potential playoff contender that could make some noise once they’re full strength. Give me the Mercury and the small chalk.
