Mercury vs. Fever Prediction, Spread, Over/Under – Wednesday, June 24
Heading into Monday’s matchup, we expected the Mercury to slow the pace against a high-powered offense. The turnover battle and controlling the paint were potential advantages for Phoenix.
The Mercury held the Fever to 86 points and a 42.2% field goal percentage (FG%), compared to Indiana’s 92.1 points per game (first) and 46.0 FG% (fifth) on the season. Further, Phoenix won the points in the paint battle, 40-26, and tallied 13 turnovers while forcing 15.
So how did the Mercury still lose by 9 points? Indiana cashed in 10 3-pointers compared to Phoenix’s 5. Plus, the Fever were a force on the glass and won the rebounding battle by +10, including 12 offensive rebounds. Indiana lived at the free throw line, taking 29 shots at the charity stripe.
Can Phoenix limit any of these categories and improve its performance in Wednesday’s rematch? We’ll look at that and more in our Mercury vs. Fever prediction below.

Mercury vs. Fever Prediction on Over/Under – 6/24/26
Here are the key game stats and trends behind our Mercury vs. Fever prediction on the over/under for Wednesday, June 24’s game.
- Indiana ranks sixth and third in offensive and defensive rebounding rates, anchored by C Aliyah Boston’s team-high 8.6 rebounds per game (RPG).
- The rebounding battle is a clear advantage for the Fever, as Phoenix sits 13th and seventh in offensive and defensive rebounding percentages.
- Furthermore, the Mercury log only 7.8 made triples per game (11th), while Indiana converts 9.6 3-pointers per contest (fourth).
- Phoenix has the fourth-lowest personal fouls per play rate, holding opponents to 18.5 free throw attempts per game (second-most). Monday’s 29 attempted free throws from the Fever does not feel sustainable.
- With that said, fewer free throw attempts could lead to fewer points. Monday’s 163 combined total easily went under 178.5.
- According to WNBA.com, Phoenix plays at the third-slowest pace. That impacted Indiana’s chances on Monday night, as it recorded 64 shots compared to 68.6 per game on the season (seventh-most).
- While the Fever drained 10 3-pointers on Monday, they shot only 29.4% from beyond the arc. Plus, they posted a measly 26 points in the paint — which is in line with the Mercury yielding only 34.6 per game (third-fewest).
- Indiana’s advantages on the glass, paired with a higher 3-point volume puts Phoenix’s ability to cover the spread in question. However, the Mercury’s pace and advantages helped fuel an under on Monday.
