Today's WNBA Basketball Picks:

Game: Atlanta at Indiana (7:00 PM Eastern)
Pick: 2 units on Indiana -6 (-110) (risk 2 to win 1.8)

The Atlanta Dream controls their own destiny in the WNBA East, sitting on top as we wind down the last three weeks of regular season play. The Indiana Fever lost that spot by dropping three straight games, one of those on the road at Atlanta. I expect a revengeful mindset, as well as showing the Dream that they are the better team, and I believe that to be the case. Let's not forget over the last 11 games, Atlanta is just 5-6, and they are 1-5 on the road in their last six vs. a winning team. The Fever is 7-3 ATS following a straight-up loss, have a lot to play for here and they are good enough to respond. I'll go with Indiana here.

If you’re sitting in Seattle's shoes right now, you have to be worried about facing off against this hungry Phoenix team that spent the first half of the season dormant. The Mercury have risen from the ashes of a 4-12 start, seemingly out of it, to take control of the second playoff spot in the West by going 8-2 in their last 10 games. The San Antonio Silver Stars are not a very good team at 10-16, with seven of the 10 wins coming against Tulsa, Minnesota and LA. The Mercury are averaging an amazing 106 points per game in their last eight, and the Silver Stars won't be able to keep up as the Mercury are now on a mission. I'll go with Phoenix here.

Results: 1-1

You have to wonder about this Connecticut team. Something truly is missing when you fall behind a team with eight wins on the season by 32 points in the first half. That rings especially true when you...

The Chicago Sky could be a playoff team in the West, but they are stuck in a rather stacked and deep Eastern Conference, and a bad 0-4 start to the season really hurt. The Sky have been above the line...

The Fever have held opponents to 71 points per game this season. What's interesting about that is that these teams average 78.6 per game. That means Indiana is shaving nearly 8 points per game off...
