Phoenix at Chicago

Chicago is just 2-5 ATS this season and it's laying too many points against the Mercury in tonight's matchup. The Sky come off an 83-76 loss at home as a one-point underdog against Las Vegas on Saturday. The Sky went 1-for-21 from 3-point range during the final three quarters, missing 18 consecutive 3s at one point. That kind of offense is not conducive to covering big point spreads. Phoenix can't shoot any worse than it did in Atlanta Sunday, when the Mercury hit only 18 of 68 from the field. Phoenix averages 43.1 percent on the season. Chicago is 1-4 ATS as a favorite and 5-15-1 ATS against teams with losing records dating to last season. Also, the Sky are 7-16 ATS as home favorites and 0-4 ATS overall their past four against the Western Conference. Take the points with the Mercury as a Max Play.
