This is a 10* on NEW YORK

The Liberty have the second worst record in the league right now. They are 8-17 after taking seven straight losses. They're 0-6 ATS in August. They're 1-10 straight up since beating Phoenix 80-76 on July 5th as 7.5-point underdogs. The Mercury are a short-handed bunch right now with Brittney Griner still suspended and Diana Taurasi still injured. If not for an 18-4 second half run Friday, they probably would not have beaten the Atlanta Dream, who have the worst record in the league. The Mercury have not won back to back games in over a month. They'd dropped three in a row before the win over Atlanta. Only one day of rest between games isn't an idea situation for Phoenix either. They are just 3-7 ATS the last 10 times in that role. The Liberty are in the same spot, with just one day of rest between games, but they should come out more desperate. Play on NEW YORK
