Sky vs Mercury Betting Pick

This game will be played at Michelob Ultra Arena at 3:00 PM ET on Sunday, August 14, 2022.

The Las Vegas Aces and Seattle Storm are both locked into the WNBA playoffs, finishing in the top-four of the standings. One of the few remaining questions in the playoff picture is whether the Aces will finish with the one-seed or the two-seed in the postseason. In our WNBA picks for Sunday, we look at Storm vs Aces, in a game that will help decide who will be the top seed in the playoffs.

Why Bet The Mercury:

The Las Vegas Aces have something to play for in this game, while the Seattle Storm do not. Seattle has clinched the fourth seed in the postseason, and will host the Washington Mystics in the first round. Las Vegas, meanwhile, can clinch the top seed in the postseason with a win in this game. Expect the Aces to get that win at home to set themselves up with an easier path through the playoffs.

Even without the motivational edge in this game, the Aces have done well against the Storm this season. Las Vegas has gone 2-1 against the Storm this year, including a win in their last meeting at Climate Pledge Arena. Expect the Aces to win against the Storm once again en route to the top seed in the WNBA postseason.

Las Vegas has had a huge advantage over Seattle in the rebounding department in their head to head matchups. The Aces have done a good job of creating second chances against the Storm, and should be able to do so again even without Dearica Hamby in their lineup. The increased workload for Kiah Stokes in this game should help the Aces maintain their edge on the glass.

Chicago Sky

The Seattle Storm are guaranteed the fourth seed in the WNBA playoffs. Here, they do not have anything to gain from a seeding perspective when they face the Las Vegas Aces. But they can gain some much-needed momentum against one of the league’s top contenders for the title if they can snag a victory on the road to close out the regular season.

In this contest, the Storm will need to do a good job of keeping A’ja Wilson and the Aces off of the offensive glass. Despite the duo of Tina Charles and Ezi Magbegor providing the Storm with plenty of size, the Storm still struggle with consistency with defensive rebounding at times. If that happens again against Las Vegas, the Storm could see their regular season end with a loss.

Phoenix Mercury

The equation for the Las Vegas Aces is a simple one going into the final day of the WNBA regular season. If they beat the Seattle Storm, they go into the WNBA playoffs with the top seed. If they lose, and Chicago beats the Phoenix Mercury, the Aces would fall to the second seed. That makes this game imperative for the Aces, as they look to take care of business before the Sky take the floor on Sunday.

The Aces have a big advantage in the guard department going into this game. But Las Vegas needs to find a way to defend Breanna Stewart and limit her contributions to prevent this game from going Seattle’s way. Without Dearica Hamby, that might be tougher than usual for the Aces, and the question is whether the Las Vegas guards can make up for that.
