Stephen Nover's WNBA Tuesday Totals Crusher
(WNBA) Phoenix vs. Washington,
Total: 164.50 | -110.00 Over
Result: Loss
Phoenix has a lot of star power. The Mercury have been shooting better, too, averaging 86 points in regulation during their last four games.

The Mercury, though, have a bottom-three defense.

The teams just met two days ago and Phoenix won, 99-90, in overtime. The Mystics, however, didn't have their leading scorer and best player, Elena Delle Donne. Still, they scored 85 points in regulation without her. Delle Donne is expected to play today.

Here's an interesting trend that points to the strong possibility of an Over: The Mercury have gone Over in 15 of the last 18 instances when playing an above .500 foe while the Mystics have gone Over 14 of the last 17 times when going against a sub .500 opponent.
