Both teams have extremely stable and outstanding players that have proven over the past matchups that they’ll do their best to make out this game, a high-scoring one.

For this particular WNBA game and taking into consideration different situations such as no travel involved for either team as this is the second game, they played at the same location.

Also, in both of their past meetings Aces vs Liberty have scored over 200 points. So, I’m expecting them to play that same type of basketball. For my WNBA pick, I’m leaning towards the over 172 as established by the oddsmakers. Good luck and hope you keep cashing in!
