Wings Defense Has to be Better

The Wings defense needs to be better after they really struggled in the last game against the Las Vegas Aces. The Wings offesne scored 85 points, but the defense gave up 104 points and that led to the blowout defeat. At the end of the first quarter they were actually up by a point but the last three quarters everything fell apart. The Wings were led by Odyssey Sims who finished with 25 points, five assists, and four rebounds. The Wings are averaging 81 points while their defense is giving up 89.2 points per game. The offense is ranked 6th in the league while the defense is ranked 12th. Arike Ogunbowale has been the top player for the Wings averaging 23.1 points while shooting 36.6 percent from the field. 

Mercury Have Won Two Straight Games

The Mercury are playing well heading into this game and they have won two games in a row. Two games ago against the Wings they won 104-96 and in the last game against the Los Angeles Sparks they were able to secure the 84-78 victory. In the last game it was Kahleah Copper who had a strong game putting up 25 points, 10 rebounds, and five assists. The Mercury is averaging 83 points while their defense is giving up 84.9 points per game. The offense is ranked 4th in the league while the defense is ranked 9th. Copper has been the top player this season averaging 22.5 points while shooting 44 percent from the field. 

Dallas Wings vs Phoenix Mercury Prediction

The Wings and Mercury just faced off a couple of games ago with zero defense played, and there is no reason it’s goin to be any different here. The Wings have the worst defense in the WNBA and it’s going to be a big problem again here. The Wings offense is going to have no issue running up the score and their offense is going to be what pushes this over the total. Back the over to cash here.
