Prop Bets: Phoenix Mercury VS Chicago Sky 2025-06-21
Phoenix Mercury vs. Chicago Sky: A Sky-High Farce (With a Side of Rebounds)
The Phoenix Mercury (-11.0) are about to turn the Chicago Sky into the Chicago Ground—literally. With a 3-12 record and a -11.0 point differential, the Sky’s offense is about as reliable as a parachute made of spaghetti. The Mercury, meanwhile, have won four straight, including a performance so dominant against the New York Liberty that the crowd started a conga line mid-game.
Key Prop Alert: Bet on Satou Sabally to obliterate her rebounding prop. The German giant is averaging 8.5 boards per game and has grabbed nine or more in four straight. Chicago’s defense? Well, they’re so bad at rebounding they might need to start using trash cans. Sabally’s first meeting with Chicago netted her eight rebounds; expect her to double that number just for fun.
Odds Breakdown (per bookmakers):
- Moneyline: Phoenix Mercury at 1.17 (near a 12% chance to lose? What are they, blessed?) vs. Chicago Sky at 5.0+ (a 17% chance to win? What are they, haunted?).
- Spread: Lay the points on Phoenix (-10.5 to -11.0) at 1.87-1.93. Take the Mercury and a spoon; you’ll need it to scrape the victory off the floor.
- Total: The Over/Under is 160.5-161.5. Given Chicago’s offense (think "molasses in a desert storm"), the Under is a safer bet unless you’re banking on a mercy rule.
Final Score Prediction: Phoenix 85, Chicago 72. The Sky will finally learn that "defying gravity" isn’t a WNBA strategy.
Bonus Prop: Will Chicago’s fans start chanting for the Mercury to show mercy? Yes, and it’ll be beautiful.
