Tulsa at Phoenix

Tulsa is winless on the season (0-5) because of a defense that is allowing 78.6 points per game. They face a Phoenix team (1-4) that is also struggling and the worst team defensively in the WNBA allowing 91.4 ppg. Neither team will care about defense, which is what happened when they met two weeks ago in an 89-87 Phoenix win at Tulsa - their only win of the campaign. Phoenix shot 54% while Tulsa went to its long-range game and made 10-of-24 three-pointers (42%). Trailing by 11 with 4:42 to play, Tulsa went on a 14-2 run to take the lead at 86-85 with 1:26 remaining, so no lead is ever safe with these up-tempo offenses and soft defenses. Phoenix is 37-17-1 OVER the total in their last 55 Sunday games, as well as on a 4-0 run OVER the total in the Mercury's last four home games. Play the OVER.
