Phoenix Mercury vs Toronto Tempo: Alyssa Thomas Under 8.5 Assists (-120)
Odds available at fanduel at time of publishing
The odds are set at -120 for Alyssa Thomas to record under 8.5 assists, which looks promising. She's been a bit all over the place lately, with her assists ranging from 0 to 4 in her last ten games. With the Phoenix Mercury allowing a lot of rebounds and three-point attempts, the Tempo might not get the chances they need for big assists.
Both teams are struggling lately, with Phoenix winning only 2 of their last 10 games and Toronto only 1. Plus, Toronto has fallen behind by an average of nearly 10 points in their last 12 games, which might limit their ability to dish out assists late in the game. The risk is that if the game stays close, Alyssa could see more opportunities, but our numbers still give this a good chance.
