Tulsa at Phoenix

It has been an anguishing several years for the Tulsa Shock since moving from Detroit. They are, however, gaining ground and despite the record, have been playing well above the line where they are 7-3 ATS on the season. They started the season at 0-5, despite closer calls than expected, but have now begun to convert those to the win column as they are 4-1 in their last five games. They have benefitted from recent drafts with the addition of Skylar Diggins, and Baylor star Odyssey Sims, and now have the players to win. Phoenix is in the ultimate letdown spot as they take on an opponent that appears to them as far inferior. The Mercury are off their two biggest games of the year in taking back-to-back decisions from Minnesota - considered the best team in the league. Look for an ever-improving Tulsa team to steal one tonight vs. a Phoenix team that may have left it all on the court physically, and emotionally in two big wins over Minnesota. Take Tulsa as a huge moneyline dog.
