New York at Phoenix
Saturday 07/05 10:05 PM Eastern
4 units on New York +6.5 (-110) (risk 4 to return 4) RESULT: WIN
Should the Mercury be laying 6.5 points? Not with a defense that allows 92.3 ppg at home. New York has a bad defense but it's MUCH beter than Phoenix's. And the Liberty have the offense to keep up with Phoenix. Home favorites off three straight wins come through ATS just 35% of the time in the WNBA. And, New York is a perfect 10-0 ATS the past two seasons when coming off a double-digit road loss. Phoenix is 2-10 ATS the past three seasons at home after two straight road games. We'll back New York to keep this one close.
