 TOP PICK
Mystics vs Fever prediction: Over 177.5

The Washington Mystics have built their identity with strong defense, but their offense has been far from electric. The team sports a 103.9 offensive rating this season, averaging just 83.5 ppg.

Over the last 10 games, however, the Mystics rank in the Top 6 in offensive rating (110.6) and scoring (88 ppg).

Play to 179.5.

Covers COVERS INTEL: The Indiana Fever have scored 100+ points in 20 games this season, comfortably more than any other team in the W. They’ve reached that mark in four straight games overall and in 12 of 20 at home.
