Las Vegas Aces vs. Chicago Sky Prediction
I’m on the Aces in this one. I get the case to be made for the Sky as home underdogs with the Aces coming off of the big win over the Liberty, but the Sky just haven’t been able to take the step up in class in a lot of spots and I think the Aces take care of business here in a double-digit win. Give me the Aces here.
