Golden State Valkyries vs. Las Vegas Aces Prediction
I’m on the Aces here. I still have respect for this Valkyries team but I also trust them a lot more at home which they are not in this matchup. The Valkyries as of late have had trouble beating the good teams and they’ve been able to take out inferior competition. Right now I feel like the Aces just have the Valkyries’ number and I’ll back them in this one at home.
Chris Ruffolo's Pick: Las Vegas -2.5
