Las Vegas Aces (5-4) vs Phoenix Mercury (7-4)

The Las Vegas Aces are in a strong position to cover the spread against the Phoenix Mercury today, despite missing key players like A’ja Wilson. Jackie Young has stepped up in Wilson’s absence, delivering back-to-back 28+ point performances, proving she can carry the offensive load. The Aces also benefit from home-court advantage, where they’ve historically performed well, and their defensive intensity will be crucial against a Mercury squad dealing with guard injuries. With Phoenix’s rotation stretched thin, expect Las Vegas to control the pace and capitalize on transition opportunities, making them a solid pick to cover the spread.
