Neither the Phoenix Mercury or Seattle Storm have a player listed on their injury report.

Phoenix Mercury vs Seattle Storm Prediction

The Seattle Storm are going to get the benefit of the doubt because of what they’ve done all season. The Storm are as hot as any team in the WNBA, and they’re 9-4 ATS. The Storm also beat the Mercury a couple of weeks ago by 18 points. I get it. However, the Mercury have been rolling since getting healthy and Griner is quickly returning to all star form. The Mercury could’ve beaten the Aces as well, but had a bunch of weird calls go against them. Those who have followed along know I’ve been high on the Mercury and have mentioned to keep an eye on them once they’re healthy. Well, they’re healthy. Give me the free bucket with the Mercury, a game they could win outright at home.
