CHI vs PHO Dream11 Prediction, Fantasy Basketball Tips, Starting Five, Team Details, 16 October

WNBA Playoffs have been special and most of the games have been played at the highest level. In game three of the WNBA Finals, the Chicago Sky host Phoenix Mercury, fighting for a two-one lead. More information about the CHI vs PHO Dream11 scenario will be imparted here.

CHI vs PHO Dream11 Prediction

Both teams come into the game after an OT battle and tested each other big time. Mercury’s response was stellar after a blowout loss in Game 1. Once again, the team benefitted from the aggressive inside game of Griner who has been phenomenal throughout the postseason. The team started Sophie Cunningham and that move paid off too.

However, Skylar Diggins-Smith’s points-assists double-double was the real difference in the end as she found her teammates even in tough situations. The Mercury pieced together a terrific performance both from inside the paint and from beyond the arc. Sky will rue missing all shots in the last two minutes and twenty seconds of the last game.

Diana Taurasi lifted the Mercury in the fourth quarter and Overtime, hitting all four threes in the last quarter and the Overtime. She made clutch shots after clutch shots. On the other hand, Courtney Vandersloot kept pushing for the win, making a difficult game-tying layup cutting across three defenders in regulation. Courtney also had 14 assists and looks in superb form.

Parker has not been assertive offensively so far in the series and the Sky may need her sooner than later. Can the Sky show the Game 1 form as well-rested Mercury showed them their potential in the last game? Who can stop Brittney from barging over again?
