Phoenix Mercury vs. Golden State Valkyries Prediction

I’m on the over here. I have to admit that Phoenix has been impressive without Satou Sabally and Kahleah Copper in the lineup and leaning on Alyssa Thomas, and the Mercury have gotten a lot out of their depth pieces during this absence. On the other side, Golden State has been a much more effective team at home and I think that we get an exciting and higher scoring game here so give me the over.
