The Sparks will try to bounce back and snap their four-game losing streak Wednesday as they face off against a struggling Mercury team at home.

DeWanna Bonner led the way for the Mercury in Sunday’s victory as she ended the game with 21 points and six rebounds while Kahleah Copper recorded 18 points, four rebounds and four assists.
While both teams are looking to pick up a victory in Wednesday night’s matchup, each may be without some of their key players due to injuries.
Mercury Injury Report: Will Sami Whitcomb Play?
The Mercury enter Wednesday’s matchup with a healthy roster as they have nobody listed on their injury report, including guard Sami Whitcomb.
