The Skinny

New York regains the services of Amanda Zahui B after she missed four games due to concussion. She will be an important piece for the Liberty as they take on an Indiana squad that possesses a pair of stalwarts in the frontcourt in Natalie Achonwa and rookie Teaira McCowan. Tina Charles has hit a groove of late, notching 20-plus points in five of the Liberty's last six games. Unfortunately, they haven't won a single game during that span and enter the contest on a seven-game losing streak. 

Indiana has fared a little better, notching three victories in its last five games, though two of the wins came against the struggling Atlanta Dream. After a brief stretch of underproduction, McCowan has totaled double digits in five of her last seven games and should have a good shot at repeating that Tuesday against the high-paced Liberty. Tiffany Mitchell could serve as a GPP play given the volatility of her output, having notched six or fewer points in four of the last seven but 15 or more in the other three contests.

The Skinny

Chicago enters as a six-point favorite in what's expected to be the highest scoring game on the slate Tuesday. Atlanta sports defensive marks that check in among the worst in the league, while their 89.4 offensive rating mark is by far the worst. Plenty of misses should mean plenty of boards for Chicago's bigs, namely Diamond DeShields, Cheyenne Parker and Stefanie Dolson. Each of the trio averages more than five rebounds per contest. Astou Ndour has also made her mark on the glass of late, collecting seven or more in each of the last three games.

Chicago's defensive rating leaves much to be desired as well, as the Sky struggle to keep the opposition from getting good looks in the paint. Elizabeth Williams does all of her damage from inside the arc and will aim to take advantage of the Sky's lacking paint defense. Jessica Breeland also fared well the last time the two clubs met, falling just a rebound short of a double-double.

The Skinny

The Aces enter Tuesday as the biggest favorite (8.5 points) on the four-game slate, also suggesting they have the biggest chance at turning the game into a blowout. Phoenix will have something to say about that, especially since they return star center Brittney Griner from a three-game absence due to suspension. She should retake her starting role, which likely moves Briann January back to the bench and limits her minutes once again. Asia Taylor also seems unlikely to cross the double-digit minute mark after doing so in two of the last three games.

The Aces have taken control of the Western Conference and are coming off a revenge win over the Sky on Sunday after they lost a home to them just nine days earlier. Unsurprisingly, Liz Cambage and A'ja Wilson led the way for the Aces with a combined 48 points. The scoring figures to turn more in the direction of the two and Kayla McBride now that Wilson is back in action, likely most to the detriment of Dearica Hamby.

The Skinny

The Lynx are looking to bounce back after a tough recent schedule, but it doesn't get much easier on the road against the Sparks. They catch them on a two-game losing streak, though both of the contests were on the road and Los Angeles sports an eight-game winning streak on the home floor. If the Lynx are to have any chance of breaking that streak, they may need to attack the boards and take advantage of the Sparks' slate-high 36 percent opposing three-point percentage. Sylvia Fowles seems the most likely candidate to crash the glass, leading the club with 9.1 rebounds per games. She totaled 20 points and 13 rebounds in the only other contest against the Sparks this season. She checks in as the fifth-most expensive forward on the slate, but the history and matchup may be too good to pass up.
