Sky Scare Storm
We like the Chicago Sky to cover this spread. Sure, it is a long road trip for Chicago, but we like them to compete. Chicago has been tough at times, competing deep into games. The double digit spread looks like too much for Seattle to cover. In the end, our final bets are the Chicago Sky +10 and the UNDer 161.5. We like a final score of 80-78 with Seattle coming away with the win, but Chicago covering the spread. Good luck with all your WNBA betting!
