Sometimes a team is under the radar to start the season, only to emerge as a top team in the sport. We saw that in MLB last year with the Tampa Bay Rays, and we are seeing one emerge in the WNBA in the Indiana Fever. The Fever opened 0-2 but have been 11-1 since, and have been under the oddsmakers' radar with a 9-3 ATS mark in their last 12 games. The Fever lost their last game as they shot a season-worst 28%, and yet still managed to make a game of it, falling by just six, so there is a lot of margain for error with this team. The Mystics are an improved team, but still not on the level of the Fever. They have struggled after a straight-up win by dropping their last four ATS after that situation. They haven't taken advantage of their homecourt with a dismal 3-9 ATS mark in their last 12 played in Washington. I'm going with the Fever in this one.
