Washington will be without their starting player again, Brittney Skies who just came back, injured herself again in her first game back, and is now out. There are a few other key players that the Mystics are still without and they face a hungry Sky team that didn’t look as bad in their last game. Despite the Sky being inconsistent at times, they are better on both sides of the ball than Washington right now, and players like Angel Reese and Cardoso are playing well. They can defend the 3 point line well which will be bad for the Mystics who rely on three point shooting the most. The Mystics may not come into this game with the needed motivation, as they deal with all their injuries, and could be vulnerable in this spot against the Sky. In fact, after a win the Mystics are 2-9 against the spread in their last 11 games following a straight up win. The Sky haven’t played great defensively but in this spot, will do enough to counter the Mystics lackluster offense. The Mystics are playing shorthanded again and Chicago has shown a grittiness all season, and this is a game they can win and cover. The Sky are 6-1 against the spread in their last 7 games versus a team with a losing record.

Best bet: lay the points with Chicago Sky.
