The Mystics suffered a 99-80 road loss to the Sparks in the final game before the All-Star break, but a return to home should prove to be the difference in Tuesday’s rematch.

🪄 Mystics ML ⭐⭐⭐⭐

📊 Best odds: -160 via BetMGM ($10 to win $6.25)

This would be a five-star play if you have access to the -150 value at ESPN BET, but I still like backing the Mystics at -165 or better to defeat the Sparks at home on Tuesday.

Washington’s young team has performed better at home this season, going 7-3 in such games compared to a 4-8 clip on the road. The Mystics rank sixth in defensive rating when playing at home this year.

The Mystics have a tough decision to make in the back half of the regular season. They must decide to push for one of the last playoff spots or trade a veteran for a higher pick, particularly since two expansion teams will join the league next year.

A win over Los Angeles could help Washington make that choice.

Shakira Austin scored 16 points on 15 shots against Los Angeles last week. The Sparks don’t have anyone who can slow her down until Cameron Brink returns later this month.
