Tonight’s Matchups (7:30 PM ET, Live on TNT & TSN+):

Rose vs Phantom
Mist vs Laces

Let’s break down what to expect.

Rose vs Phantom

Rose: 5-4 (W4)
Phantom: 3-6 (W1)

Struggle. That is the best way to describe the Phantom’s season thus far. They currently find themselves near the bottom of the table, and there’s no signs of turning around. Meanwhile, the Rose are pushing their way to the top, competing greatly with the Laces who are having a rough go recently.

Key Players to Watch:

• Rose: Chelsea Gray (18.3 PPG)
• Phantom: Sabrina Ionescu (18.1 PPG)

There’s no doubt the Rose are the better team here, and I’ll take ML for sure. With the spread so thin at 3.5, I’ll also take that on.

Betting Insights:

• Moneyline: Phantom (+122), Rose (-156)
• Spread: Rose –3.5
• Total: 143.139.5

Best Bet: Rose -3.5 (-113)

Mist vs Laces

Mist: 2-7 (L3)
Laces: 5-4 (L1)

Laces were the solid number 2 for majority of the season, but lately have been wavering. The Mist on the other hand have seen no real success, but are pushing for a late playoff spot. Given this, I would hesitate on the moneyline, but with the spread at 4.5, I’ll take the Mist to cover.

Key Players to Watch:

• Mist: Breanna Stewart (18.3 PPG)
• Laces: Tiffany Hayes (18.5 PPG)

Betting Insights:

• Moneyline: Laces (-180), Mist (+140)
• Spread: Laces -4.5
• Total: 133.5

Best Bets: Mist +4.5 (-113)
