The Dream have quietly been the second-best team in the Eastern Conference, but they have also lost three of their last four contests. The Mercury enter the second game of a back-to-back set against the Wings on a two-game losing streak, falling 98-89 to Dallas last Thursday. Phoenix will be without star Satou Sabally for Monday's contest as the star deals with an ankle injury. She's officially considered day-to-day.
