Today's WNBA Basketball Picks:

Game: Chicago at New York (7:30 PM Eastern)
Pick: 5 units on New York -190 (moneyline) (risk 5 to win 2.6)

The Sky has been a no-show on the road this season as they have just three wins to show for 13 games. That is not a new trend for this team. The Sky has been part of the WNBA now for three years, and their road total is not a resume to hang your hat on, when looking for an upset as they are just 9-38 in their franchise history on the road. That makes the moneyline value here at just under 2-1 odds, in a situation where the Sky have cashed less than one out of four. I'll go with New York on the moneyline here.

The New York Liberty has been playing much better, as they have won two of their last three games, covering all three of them. They will take on the Chicago Sky, who have been quite a different team on the road than they have been at home. While they have taken on virtually all comers on their home court sporting an 8-2 mark on the season, the Sky has really had problems on the road where they are just 3-10. They have played decent defense on the road, but it has been a struggle for them to score as they have now played their last four on the road to the UNDER. The Liberty has had recent success by committing to the defensive end as they have limited their last three opponents to an average of just 65 points per game. The Sky is not only losing on the road, but they aren't covering either at 4-10 ATS in their last 14 road games. I like New York here, and the UNDER which has been the way these teams have played, as five of the last six between them have gone UNDER.

Neither of these teams resembles what they were a year ago, and has fallen short of expectations. Last year, these teams combined for a 43-25 mark, and this year just 24-19. Connecticut has really bee...

When you compare these teams from what they were a year ago, there are no similarities. The Mystics were losing their last nine games, and last six at home, while the Shock were sweeping San Antonio o...

It has been a much less successful season for the Los Angeles Sparks. A good reason is the heavily weighted road schedule they have played, and also missing their best all-around player for much of th...

The team with the worse record here is favored by five points. And I don't think it's enough. This is a big revenge situation. On June 6, the Mystics strolled in here and laid a 12-point ...

I think it is time for the oddsmakers to make a different evaluation of this Seattle team. Gone is the defensive stalwart that ruled the day a season ago, and with it, the consistent wins that this te...
