Premium Pick

After a terrible start Phoenix is finally playing up to its capabilities, winning four of six. They are well rested with four full days off. Phoenix is third in the WNBA in points topping 90 in three of the last six. Diana Taurasi leads the WNBA in scoring (24.1 ppg) and had 31 points the last game, an 86-80 victory over the Chicago Sky as the Mercury overcame a 14-point deficit. Los Angeles has a quicker turnaround, playing Tuesday against Chicago and the Sparks are 16-34-1 ATS in their last 51 home games. Los Angeles is also 7-15-1 ATS against a team with a losing straight-up record. Big dog Phoenix matches up well and has more than enough to keep this close. Take the points on Phoenix.
