LA has been (properly) playing possum and has recently locked up the best odds in the 2025 lottery. They’ve lost 7 in a row, but the last two were single digit losses to Seattle and the most recent was a one possession loss on the road.
It’s okay for them to win now and indications are that they want to. Their remaining games are vs.PHX and @MIN. Their longest losing streak of the season has been 8 games. If they lose their final home game of the season tonight, there’s a very goo chance they finish the season by breaking their own losing streak record for the year.
For the record, Minnesota has the tiebreaker with NYL as of their most recent win so they could still be playing for something in that final game.
Phoenix is 5-8 since the Olympic break. They have only beaten two teams: Chicago and Atlanta. Third game out for Copper. Phoenix isn’t playing for anything (except maybe to avoid the shame of finishing under .500). Fever swept the season series with them so Merc are locked in at 7.
Despite PHX 3-0 record vs. LA this season, every game has been closer than the last. 19 point loss in LA, 14 point loss in PHX, 6 point loss in PHX.
I struggle to see how Phoenix will come close to matching the LA energy tonight. Without Copper, I don’t even think the talent discrepancy here is that large and Sparks have the bodies to deal with Griner.
