Houston at Sacramento

The Houston Comets make the trip to Sacramento to face the Monarchs. These teams are separated in the standings by the slimmest of margins - a half game, with the Monarchs holding the edge. Where they are much more distant has to do with the venue of this game. Sacramento has been among the WNBA's elite home teams where they will carry a 10-4 mark into this contest. Houston, on the other hand, has been uncompetitive on the road. The Comets have been the worst team in the WNBA outside the lowly Atlanta Dream, where they have put together a dismal 3-11 mark. We will back the home-strong Monarch's against the road-dead Comets in this one.
