New York snuck into the playoffs when Los Angeles and Washington both lost on Sunday as the Liberty held the tiebreaker due to a better head-to-head record against each of them. The Liberty's win against the Mystics on Friday was crucial to them claiming the tiebreaker. New York covered the spread in three of its last four games, including the 91-80 victory over Washington. Their last two games, against the Mystics and Connecticut, soared OVER by an average of nearly 14 points, and New York is 18-14 OVER on the season. The Liberty is led by the duo of Betnijah Laney (16.8 points per game) and Natasha Howard (16.2 points per game). Phoenix star guard Diana Taurasi is listed as out indefinitely with an ankle injury, and the Mercury lost their final three games of the regular season. Also, Phoenix is 1-4 ATS in their last five games. Grab the points with the New York Liberty and also play this game to go OVER.
