Tempo vs Mystics Prediction
We know the deal with the Mystics. We fade this team as a favorite and back them as an underdog. The problem here is we’re not being asked to lay much. Also, the Mystics are playing good ball over the last two weeks, and they enter this game completely healthy. The Tempo is still banged up and has issues stringing together wins. The Tempo hasn’t won back-to-back games since June 7 – June 10. The Mystics have beaten the Tempo twice this season. I’ll lay the bucket with the Mystics.
