WNBA Predictions

Washington at Indiana: The Mystics are favored by 7 and the total on this one is up to 162, while my numbers call for Washington to win 85-80. Washington has seen its grip on first place in the Eastern Conference disappear and part of that is due to the team’s poor play on the road, where they are 3-6 straight-up. They have won the games they are supposed to, going 3-0 as an away favorite, but have lost the ones they were expected to and have an 0-6 record as an away underdog. Indiana is playing its final home game before a four-game Western Conference swing and the Fever plays better at home, where they are outscored by .8 points compared to more than 12 points when they’re traveling. My three totals methods are calling for this one to go over the total and with the other number in agreement, I’ll tab the over 162 as tonight’s play.
Chicago at New York: Don’t look now, but Chicago is riding a two-game winning streak, having defeated Minnesota and Dallas in its last two, but are still just 5-14 for the season, so a letdown may be possible. The Fire have played well on the road, sporting a 6-2 ATS record, but they’ve also played better against the West. New York is 8-8 on the season and have been pretty average no matter how you look at things. New York is favored by 8 and the total is 161.5, while I have the Liberty winning 82-80. The totals numbers lean to the under, but I’ll most likely be staying away from this one completely.
Minnesota at Phoenix: The Lynx are favored by 6.5 and the total is 165.5, while I have Minnesota winning 84-81. The additional totals numbers are calling for projections of 164 to 164.5, as they are also tightly bunched. Minnesota is coming off its shocking loss to Chicago and the Lynx won and covered after their other loss this season, while the Mercury tend to play better defensively at home. The teams travel to Minnesota on Sunday for a quick rematch, so will sit and watch this one and see if something better presents itself over the weekend.
