Washington Mystics vs. Las Vegas Aces Prediction

I’m on the Aces in this one. I’m so tempted to take the Mystics in this matchup, considering the hot streak they’ve been on, but it’s worth remembering that a lot of those performances came at home and although they did win in Golden State against the Valkyries, it’s a tough ask to go back on the road after a long homestand and take on a rested Aces team that sat a lot of their key players in that Liberty blowout. I think the overreaction is giving us some line value on the Aces and no disrespect to what the Mystics are doing right now but I think this is just a Las Vegas spot. Give me the Aces.

Chris Ruffolo's Pick: Washington +6.5
