Indiana Fever vs. Chicago Sky Prediction
I’m on the Sky and the points in this one. Chicago’s given the Fever problems this season. Even though the Fever are 2-0 against Chicago this season, Chicago’s covered in both meetings, taking one to OT and losing by just 4 in the other. Chicago’s also catching Indiana in a nightmare spot for the Fever in a true back-to-back with travel when true back-to-backs are a rarity in the WNBA. I think the Sky could be live to win this game so I’m backing Chicago with the points here in a game they could win outright.
