Our New York Liberty vs Phoenix Mercury Prediction
With the Mercury on the second night of a back-to-back, betting them to cover feels risky. At the same time, backing the Liberty also feels risky as the spread is set in double figures.
Instead, we will be looking to target Sabrina Ionescu from the New York Liberty to score at least 20 points. Ionescu is the leading scorer for the Liberty and is averaging 20.8 points per game. Additionally, she is coming off back-to-back games of 34 points and has scored at least 20 points in her last three games.
Overall, Ionescu has scored at least 20 points in seven of the Liberty’s 11 games this season; therefore, our Phoenix Mercury vs New York Liberty prediction is: Sabrina Ionescu to Score 20+ Points.All tips are fully researched and given in good faith, but profits cannot be guaranteed.
