PHOENIX MERCURY 12-12 @ WASHINGTON MYSTICS 6-18 (11:30 am EST)
For a team thats just 6-18, the Mystics aren’t playing too bad right now going 4-5 L9. In fact after starting 0-12 to start the season, Washington is now 6-6 in their last 12 games.
Whats more interesting, is when it comes to statistical matchups these teams are pretty dead even in every category with the mystics even holding an advantage in 3 pointers made per gm and 3 point percentage at 37.1% good for 2nd in the league (yes take more 3’s)! Washington even has a slightly better defensive rating at 104.7 compared to the mercury’s 107.2.
One last interesting tidbit, the spread is at 5 right now and for a team that is just 6-18, the mystics are 11-5 ATS when they are a -4.5 underdog or more. (Suffolk news Herald)
special Note: aside from Brittany GrinerI I don’t know any of these players from Eve. I don’t know the coaching staff dont know their team chemistry who’s fúcking who, etc, etc. I’m just a kid with a dream with a little bit of data and a little bit of time on his hands.
