Chicago Sky vs Phoenix Mercury Prediction

The Phoenix Mercury are the better team and should be favored, but you can make a case for either side, as both the Mercury and Sky are fighting for playoff seeding. However, the Mercury could be in a weird spot when you consider Griner, Cooper and Taurasi are all coming back from Paris. How does the quick turnaround and long Travel impact the Mercury’s key players? While this is the first meeting this season, the Sky have won 8 of the last 10 Games against the Mercury. This is a winnable Game for the Sky at home. Give me the Sky and the fee bucket.
