Alyssa Thomas proved she could be a dependable scorer for the Phoenix Mercury in her first season with the team in 2025, scoring 15.4 ppg on 53.2% shooting, the best percentage of her career. Early returns in 2026 suggest Thomas might be even more productive this season, as she’s averaging 19.5 ppg through the Mercury’s first two games. The Minnesota Lynx looked shaky on defense in their opener, and I like Thomas to continue her scoring barrage tonight.

Natasha Mack won the opening tip in each of the Mercury’s first two games. At 6’4 with a 6’11 wingspan, Mack has a height and reach advantage over most opposing centers. That will be the case when she jumps against the 6’2 Natasha Howard. Howard lost the tip to the taller Angel Reese in Minnesota’s opener against the Dream, and I expect Mack to get the better of her on Tuesday. Including last season’s Finals and the 2026 preseason and regular season, Mack has tipped the ball to Thomas in seven of eight games, and Thomas has attempted the first shot four times.
