Phoenix Mercury vs Connecticut Sun Prediction

You can make a case for either side, as the Phoenix Mercury have been a good team since Griner returned, and they’ll be eager to rebound from a loss to the Fever. The Connecticut Sun entered the season as title contenders, but they’ve lost 3 of their last 4 Games. The Mercury are 9-4 ATS in their last 13 Games as an underdog. Still, I’m going to lay the 2 points with the Sun if forced to pick because of the rest advantage. The Sun haven’t played since Friday, while the Mercury are on the end of a back to back. Also, the Sun waxed the 70-47 back in May and have won 8 of the last 10 meetings against them overall. Mercury Give me the Sun and the small chalk.
