WNBA predictions, picks, and odds for the Phoenix Mercury at Los Angeles Sparks on August 23. WNBA betting best bet and game analysis.
We’re rapidly approaching the endgame of the WNBA regular season, which means some teams are going to be desperate for every last win. We have one such mismatch tonight as the suddenly red-hot Los Angeles Sparks host the bottom-feeding Phoenix Mercury.
certainly favor a strong Sparks performance, but a team full of players getting their first shot at real minutes is always dangerous.Mercury vs Sparks best oddsUnlike their city’s namesake, the Phoenix Mercury do not appear ready to rise from the ashes any time soon. At 9-23, they’re only a fraction better than the Indiana Fever, who own the worst record in the WNBA. They fired their coach midseason and may have wasted one of the last productive years of Diana Taurasi’s career.
In the absence of so many of the key cogs that make the Mercury offense run, one player remains who can shoulder the offensive load: Sophie Cunningham. Cunningham is a career 35.9% shooter, and while she’s a touch lower than that this year at 34.6%, she takes a lot of them and has a fairly diverse jumper. She can take shots off the move as well as coming off screens and is deadly when planted in the corner.
