Sky vs Mercury Prediction
I’m not running to the window to back the Sky, an awful team that’s even worse with all of their injuries. On paper, the Mercury should have their way in this matchup. However, the Mercury have lost five of their last six games, and that includes a 23-point loss to the Dream when they were 3.5-point favorite. The Mercury have outright five of their last seven games as a favorite. Since getting healthy, the Mercury have gotten worse. It’s weird. Um, it’s Sky and the points or pass for me.
