The Phoenix Mercury have dropped three straight games, and they’ll look to get back on track when they travel to the Nation’s Capital to face the Washington Mystics tonight.
My Mercury vs. Mystics predictions and WNBA picks expect big games from Brittney Sykes and Alyssa Thomas in a low-scoring game at Carefirst Arena.
Mercury vs Mystics predictions
My Mercury vs Mystics best bet: Brittney Sykes Over 21.5 points + rebounds + assists (-130 at bet365)
Brittney Sykes is in the midst of the best statistical season of her career. She’s averaging career highs in points (16.8) and assists (4.5) to go with 3.6 rebounds, good for 25.9 PRA.
Her production has been down as of late, as she’s averaged just 21.4 PRA across her last six appearances. In that span, Sykes has hit the Over on this line three times overall. Across her last four at home, Sykes has averaged 22.3 PRA, hitting the Over twice and racking up 19 and 20 PRA in the other two.
On the season, Sykes has posted at least 22 PRA in six of 11 home games. She finished with a 10/5/5 line at Phoenix in her first matchup with the Mercury this season. The visiting team has struggled defensively across its last three games, offering a great opportunity for Sykes to stuff the stat sheet.
Mercury vs Mystics same-game parlay (SGP)
Brittney Sykes Over 21.5 points + rebounds + assists
Alyssa Thomas Over 29.5 points + rebounds + assists
Under 164.5
Like Sykes, Alyssa Thomas has stuffed the stat sheet all season. The latter is averaging 15.1 points, 7.8 rebounds, and 9.4 assists, good for 32.3 PRA. Thomas has gone for 30+ PRA in four of her last six games overall, including two of her last three on the road. She’s hit the Over on this line in 13 of 19 games this season, and she should have no problem reaching that mark once more.
Both teams have struggled to put the ball in the hoop over their last five games. In that span, the Mystics rank 10th in points per game at 75.8, while the Mercury rank 11th at 75.6. Washington has hit the Under in three of its last five, and Phoenix has done so in four of five. Expect a low-scoring game in DC tonight.
