On Sunday, August 2nd, 2025, the Phoenix Mercury (16-11) will visit the Chicago Sky (7-20) in a WNBA matchup. The Mercury, currently third in the Western Conference, are looking to extend their lead over the struggling Sky, who have lost 5 straight home games and are being outscored by an average of 10.4 points per game.
The key for the Mercury will be the play of Alyssa Thomas, who is averaging 9.0 assists per game, leading the team's offense. The Sky, on the other hand, have been unable to find their rhythm at home, and will need to find a way to slow down the Mercury's attack.
In their previous meeting on June 21st, the Mercury defeated the Sky 107-86, with Sami Whitcomb leading the way for the Mercury with 17 points. The Sky's Kamilla Cardoso also scored 17 points in that game, but it wasn't enough to overcome the Mercury's dominant performance.
As the season enters its final stretch, both teams will be looking to gain momentum and secure a playoff spot. The Sky, in particular, will be desperate to turn things around at home and avoid a prolonged losing streak.
