Shane’s Free Pick
The Mystics are coming off a loss, but that was also against an elite Aces team. The Mystics are averaging 80.3 points and theta re going to go over that here. The Sparks defense has been good this season, but some of that has to do with the slow pace. The Sparks won’t be keeping up, and the Mystics are going to get the job done here. Back the Mystics against the spread.
