Satou Sabally, who failed to deliver in the series opener, dropped 15 points, along with Alyssa Thomas. DeWanna Bonner grabbed eight rebounds, while Alyssa Thomas led the charts in assists with seven.&nbsp;<\/p><p>Here are a few facts about the Mercury:&nbsp;<\/p><ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Phoenix averages 82.8 points per game, which is only 2.5 points more than what the Liberty allow.&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>They are fourth-ranked in points allowed per game at 80.1 points.&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>They have totaled 118 more points than their opponents this season at 2.7 points per game on an average.&nbsp;<\/li>\n<\/ul><h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Mercury Expected Lineup&nbsp;<\/h3><p>Alyssa Thomas (F), Satou Sabally (F), Natasha Mack (C), Kahleah Copper (G), Monique Akoa Makani (G)<br>Key Bench Players: Kathryn Westbeld, Kalani Brown<br>Injuries: None.
