The Phoenix Mercury are already looking like a much better team than they were last season, getting off to a 3-2 start and covering the spread in three of those games as well.
Still, they have a tough matchup on Tuesday night against the undefeated Connecticut Sun, who have won some close games against the Minnesota Lynx and Chicago Sky as of late.
Phoenix’s big offseason move was to add Kahleah Copper in a trade, and it’s paid off already, with the star guard averaging nearly 30 points per game on the season.
Connecticut ranks in the top five in the league in offensive rating, defensive rating and net rating, and it is favored by seven points in Tuesday’s matchup.
