Tempo vs Aces Prediction
I was going to consider the Tempo and the points until I saw that injury report. No Sykes, Sabally, Morrow, or Mabrey. A bad team as it is; I’m not sure how the Tempo have any success at either end of the floor down so many rotation players. The Aces still have bench issues and can allow teams to hang around because of it, but Toronto won’t be fielding a WNBA roster for this game. The Aces should win this game by 20-plus points.
