------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Chicago Sky at New York Liberty (-5.5, 152.5)
The host Liberty have won two straight and four of five. They're on a 5-0-1 ATS run.
New York's Cappie Pondexter ranks fourth in the league in scoring (18.5) and is coming off a brilliant 20-point, nine-rebound, seven-assist performance in the Liberty's 76-73 win in San Antonio on Friday. Pondexter will be looking to atone for the 4-of-16 shooting display she put on in New York's first meeting with Chicago, an 85-73 Sky win at home on June 17.
The Sky had dropped three straight, all by at least eight points, until bouncing back for a 78-65 win over Washington last Tuesday. Sylvia Fowles, the team's 6-6 center, poured in 34 points to go with 16 rebounds and now leads the WNBA at 21.9 points per game.
But Chicago had to play Atlanta on Saturday night before flying to New York, where the Liberty were waiting and resting.
Pick: New York
Tulsa Shock at Phoenix Mercury (-14, 182)
Nolan Richardson is a legend in Tulsa, where his coaching career took off.
But his style did not translate to the WNBA, and he resigned as Shock head coach after Friday's 86-78 home loss to Phoenix. When the teams meet again in Phoenix on Sunday, Shock assistant Teresa Edwards will be in charge.
Edwards, an Olympic gold medalist, will enter the basketball hall of fame next month. She's admired and respected by her players, who are sure to play extremely hard.
The Shock might be 1-10, but there is talent in Liz Cambage, Kayla Pedersen and Tiffany Jackson.
Tulsa is 6-5 ATS, just behind Phoenix's 7-4 ATS mark. The Shock, who just proved they can hang with the Mercury, should put forth an inspired effort.
