⁠⁠Washington Mystics vs Dallas Wings prediction

The oddsmakers favor the Wings to win at home. They are coming off of a tough 100-93 loss to the red-hot Indiana Fever. Against a far weaker opponent in the Mystics, Dallas should get the win. This should be a close game, though, and the Wings likely won’t cover the spread. The team total should stay under 172.5 points.
