img10:00 PM Eastern

Golden State is in triple revenge as it will try again to defeat the Mercury, who won the latest meeting 98-81 on Tuesday. The Valkyries came up short even while hitting 12 of 35 3-point attempts. The game soared OVER by 34 points, and Phoenix has allowed an average of 85.5 points in its past four games, going OVER in three of them. Golden State is 4-1-1 ATS in its past six games, and it has gone OVER three of four. The Valkyries have covered five of six road games and four of five overall following a loss. They have covered seven out of 12 on the road. This is a tough scheduling spot for Phoenix, which played at Las Vegas last night and lost by 22 points while shooting 31 percent in one of its worst performances of the season. Take the Valkyries and the OVER.
