Aces vs. Mystics
By Joe Dellera
The Aces take on the Mystics this afternoon and one player that should excel in this matchup is Kelsey Plum.
Plum has been a sniper from 3 this season and is averaging three 3s per game. Here, she gets a matchup against a Mystics team that allows the second-most attempts per game in the W while playing at a league average Pace.
Plum has also thrived in this matchup historically, exceeding 2.5 3s in five of her last six games against Washington over the last few seasons.
I’ll back Plum to exceed 2.5 3s today.
Pick: Kelsey Plum o2.5 3s (-120)

Aces vs. Mystics
The Aces have the best first half Net Rating on the road of any team in the W this season (+13), but that still isn’t enough to warrant this big of a spread against the Mystics.
Washington has the best ATS record of any team in the first two frames at 13-4 while the Aces have struggled early and continue to be overvalued early at just 4-10-1 ATS in the first half.
One thing to note is that the Aces have improved with Chelsea Gray running the offense (3-0 ATS since her return). That said, +8 is still too high for the Mystics in the first half.
Pick: Mystics +8
