Phoenix at Washington

The Mercury haven't lost four games in a row in more than two years. I think they avoid that fate today (or at least keep the game very close). The oddsmakers agree, making Phoneix a small 3-point underdog on the road vs. a team that is 5-1 at home. This is a good matchup for Phoenix. Their defense is their problem, but Washington doesn't score a whole lot. The Mystics could struggle to keep up with Phoenix's offense here. WNBA teams off back-to-back losses are very good bets, hitting at over 60% long-term. The Mercury are 12-4 ATS since last season as a dog. And over that same span, they are 10-1 ATS when coming off a road loss. Overall the past two seasons, Phoenix is 17-5 ATS following a loss. I like Phoenix here.
