Phoenix Mercury vs. Atlanta Dream Prediction

I’m on the Dream here. I get the case to be made for the Mercury as this is the healthiest that the Mercury have been in some time with Satou Sabally, Alyssa Thomas and Kahleah Copper all back on the floor together. However, that lineup hasn’t really resulted in wins for the Mercury since getting the band back together, and the Dream are still a solid squad that’s coming off of another solid showing against the Wings. I’m on the Dream in this one.
