Two playoff-contending teams collide as the Phoenix Mercury visit the Golden State Valkyries in a perimeter-heavy Tuesday night showdown at the Chase Center. Phoenix sits fourth at 20-13, while Golden State is 7th at 18-16, both jockeying for positioning with a tight playoff picture. The teams have combined for 23 threes across their last two meetings, signaling a fast, space-oriented game that can create multiple fantasy streams for guards and wings.
Thomas sparked Phoenix in their latest road win with a triple-double, underscoring the Mercury’s depth and late-game decision-making. The Mercury are listed as a 6.5-point favorite with a 154.5 total, a setup that rewards players who can rack up points, assists and threes. Golden State snapped a four-game win streak with a home loss to Atlanta, but their recent form keeps them squarely in the mix. This tilt offers clear fantasy upside, especially for shooters and multi-category contributors who thrive in pace-and-space environments.
