Phoenix Mercury vs Minnesota Lynx Prediction
The Minnesota Lynx are going to be favored for obvious reasons, as they’ve played the better ball up to this point. However, the Lynx aren’t the same team on the road as they are at home, and the Mercury have seen 9 of their 16 wins come at home. The home team has won 8 of the last 10 Games between the Mercury and Lynx. Big Game as the Lynx and Mercury are fighting for playoff seeding. I could see this Game going either way. Give me the Mercury and the free 3.5 points.
