Who’s your pick to win? 👀

What happened: Dallas and Phoenix are set for a 1 p.m. ET matchup, with the Wings chasing a sixth straight win. The game opens Saturday's three-game WNBA slate.

Why it matters: Dallas has a chance to keep its late push moving, while Phoenix arrives off Friday's 94-91 win after adding Shay Ciezki for the rest of the season and Saylor Poffenbarger. Another Wings win would extend the streak against a Mercury team that just got immediate scoring help.

By the numbers: Dallas entered the matchup seeking a sixth straight victory. Ciezki scored a game-high 22 points in Phoenix's 94-91 win Friday.

What to watch: Watch whether Dallas can turn the streak into six and whether Phoenix gets another quick scoring lift from its new additions.
