Tuesday's Best WNBA Picks & Bets: Sky vs. Liberty

Chicago Sky at New York Liberty WNBA Picks & Bets
The Liberty continue to run through the WNBA in their title defense. Standing in their way Tuesday is the Sky, who have had a rough start to the season. They're 2-5 SU and 3-4 ATS. Both wins and two of the covers, came against the league's worst record, Dallas.
Chicago's offense has been nothing short of atrocious. They do rebound the ball well on the offensive side with the top OReb rate in the league, but this is predominantly a product of having the second worst two-point FG% at 44.9%. They also boast the worst turnover rate and the second least FTM per FGA.
Unfortunately for Chicago, things have turned from bad to worse. They'll be without Courtney Vandersloot, the team leader with 5.6 APG. They'll also lose her 10.6 PPG. Vandersloot led the Sky in scoring in their 25 point loss to the Liberty last month. With her no longer in the lineup, you can expect to see more of the 22 turnover performance the Sky had in that game.
The Liberty have been a juggernaut all year, blowing out nearly every team they've played. The Sky already couldn't really compete at their level and with the injuries, that feat should be even more difficult. This is a large number, but the Liberty should still cover.
Pick: Liberty -17 (-110)
