2008 Season WNBA Basketball Past Picks

The Washington Mystics will head to Detroit as the WNBA season winds to a conclusion. Detroit remains tied with Connecticut for the top spot in the East, while the Mystics playoff hopes ended a long time ago. This is a league dominated by home teams, but when the spreads get to 10, the home teams have fared poorly. The only team that has consistently seen double-digit numbers against them is Atlanta. When you get past Atlanta, not since the opening night of the WNBA season has any other team lost to a pointspread of 10 or more! There have only been two lines all season as high as this one, both on Atlanta, and they covered both of them. No other spread has topped 12 on any team but Atlanta. This is a serious overlay here so I'll back the Mystics to cover.
