Washington Mystics vs Seattle Storm Prediction
The Seattle Storm beat the snot out of the Mystics twice back in May and are more than capable of dong the same here as well. With that said, the Storm are now 6-7 SU on the road on the season and have lost 5 of their last 7 road games overall. It’s a concern that the Storm aren’t close to the same team they are at home. The Storm have also failed to cover 6 of their last 8 games. The Mystics have covered 6 of their last 8 games as a home underdog. Give me the points, but it’s more of a fade of the Storm than anything else.
