Los Angeles Sparks vs. Washington Mystics Prediction
I’m leaning towards the Mystics in this game. It’s a bit of a tricky revenge spot and it’ll be interesting to see how things shake out in the first game back from the all-star break, but the Mystics have been a far stronger team at home this season and I think that they get their revenge by bouncing back against the Sparks at home here. Give me the Mystics laying the points.
