Our Las Vegas Aces vs Phoenix Mercury Prediction
Despite a rebuilt lineup following the departure of long-tenured stars Diana Taurasi and Brittney Griner, the Mercury defied odds and went all the way. They rely on their three-headed monster of Satou Sabally, Kahleah Cooper, and Alyssa Thomas.
However, they'll be going up against an Aces squad that's led by the reigning MVP A'ja Wilson. Following an incredible performance during the semifinals decider, look for Wilson to dominate against the Mercury. Our prediction for the Las Vegas Aces vs Phoenix Mercury is: Aces (-3.5) cover the spread.Grab an extra $350 for your Las Vegas Aces vs Phoenix Mercury wager!
