WNBA Finals Showdown: Can the Underdog Mercury Dethrone the Dominant Aces?

When it comes to the MVP, my choice is a bit unconventional. Thomas is going to be targeted by the Aces and she’ll be getting multiple looks throughout the series. But the ultimate matchup nightmare for Las Vegas might be Satou Sabally, who if she can keep her shot selection within herself instead of forcing shots, will have the chance to be the Mercury’s most efficient offensive player. Just like how the Minnesota Lynx a year ago had difficulty stopping Jonquel Jones because so much of their energy was on Breanna Stewart, I believe the same will happen this year with Sabally. Her combination of length, speed and shooting will be too much for an Aces team that’s best lineup is when they play smaller.
