Washington Mystics vs. Chicago Sky Prediction

I’m on the over here. I can’t lay this many points with the Mystics and the Sky could be getting Ariel Atkins back for this game. However, the problem here is that the Sky are still a sieve defensively and just gave up 103 points to the Mystics in the last meeting just over a week ago. I think this total is just set too low, plain and simple. I’m expecting little defense to be played here, so I’m rolling with the over in this one.
