Premium Pick

Phoenix is a powerhouse with impressive records both home and away, and on an 8-2 run. This team is tops in the WNBA in scoring and second in points allowed! Phoenix tries to set a WNBA single-season record with its 29th victory here. The Mercury is 10-3 ATS against a team with a losing record and faces a down Seattle squad. Seattle won its first three games in August to keep alive its slim playoff hopes, but was eliminated before tip-off of Friday's 77-65 loss to Los Angeles. The Storm will miss the playoffs for the first time since 2003, and their record will be the franchise's worst since 2001. They've earned the bad record, ranked 12th in the WNBA in scoring. Seattle is on a 3-7 ATS run, 1-6 ATS following a defeat, and 0-5 ATS playing on one day of rest. Phoenix has won all four of the previous meetings by an average of 17.5 points, going 4-0 ATS. Play Phoenix.
