NBA Projections, Stats & Analysis

Defensive concerns for Mercury, offensive ones for the Storm

The Mercury defense looked porous without their perennial defensive anchor Brittney Griner. Tina Charles for all her scoring talent and rebounding prowess, isn’t much of a defender and Griner is absolutely needed to cover the ground. Meanwhile, Diana Taurasi is in the closing moments of her career and she can’t be expected to do much as a defender. Will Sophie Cunningham help out? The offense does look strong with Skylar Diggins-Smith, Diana, Peddy, and Charles.

The Storm has two big-time scorers in the form of Stewart and Loyd. Stewart once again showed her brilliant scoring in the first two games while Loyd can also turn on the jets. Apart from these two, Ezi Magbebor hasn’t looked in great offensive touch while Gabby Williams has been rather too inefficient. Sue Bird has been off her game too so the team will need someone else to step apart from Loyd and Stewart.

Performance Predictions

Highest scorer: Breanna Stewart: 23

Tina Charles(PHO)
Points: 15
Rebounds: 03
Assists: 03

Diana Taurasi(PHO)
Points: 09

Guard Diana is a legendary name in the world of basketball and still has a lot to offer but would like to surely shoot better than 3/11. I believe she will be in 13-19 points and 5-9 assists range.
Expected Fantasy Points Range: 24-34

Sue Bird(SEA)
Points: 03
Rebounds: 01

PHO vs SEA DREAM11 LINEUP BALANCERS

Shey Peddy(PHO) had 16 points, 2 assists, 1 rebound, 2 steals, 1 block in the last game. Guard Peddy made six of her 12 shots in the last game. I expect her to be in 10-16 points range.

Ezi Magbebor(SEA) had 8 points, 5 rebounds, 1 assist, 4 blocks, 1 steal in the last game. Center Magbebor remains unpolished at the NBA level on the offensive end but can be an effective rebounder and defender. I believe she will be in 6-12 points, 4-7 rebounds, and 1-3 blocks range.
Expected Fantasy Points Range: 13-23
