Phoenix has won and covered five in a row, including 88-83 at Connecticut on Sunday when Brittney Griner poured in 26 points and pulled down nine rebounds and Diana Taurasi contributed 23 points. The Mercury are getting nearly double digits in this matchup against the Sparks, who also are on a winning streak after beating the Sun 81-70 on September 3, when Nneka Ogwumike led five players in double figures with 21 points. The Mercury has some momentum while Los Angeles has been off for nine days and Phoenix is in triple revenge against the Sparks. Both teams average nearly 83 points per game and the points loom large in this one. Take the road underdog Mercury.
