Washington vs. Phoenix

Defending champion Washington barely made it into the postseason by winning five of its last six games, but the Mystics are nowhere near the team that won the WNBA title in 2019 as they have played most of the season without four key players due to various reasons. Phoenix finished 13-9 and has won seven of its last nine games and are still led by Diana Taurasi, who was a major factor in both of the Mercury's wins over the Mystics this season. Phoenix blew out Washington, 94-72, on Aug. 28 while shooting 56.9 percent. Phoenix has covered the number four of the last five meetings, and the Mercury is 10-4 ATS its last 14 games versus teams with losing records. Also, Phoenix is 36-17 ATS its last 53 games against the Eastern Conference. Take the Phoenix Mercury for a Max Play.
