Premium Pick

Los Angeles had a chance to win the title at home the last game and blew it, getting pushed around by the victorious Lynx, 80-69. Minnesota dominated inside the paint, outrebounding the Sparks 48-28 as no Los Angeles player reached double figures in rebounding. Minnesota is trying for its fourth title in seven years. While the Sparks went 16-1 straight-up at home during the regular season, they were just 10-7 on the road. Los Angeles is also 58-85 ATS after covering three of their last four against the spread. Meanwhile, Minnesota went 15-2 SU at home and outscored opponents by +11.1 points per game overall - the best differential in the league. Minnesota is loaded with depth, defense and talent, led by WNBA MVP Sylvia Fowles while the offense has been strong since getting a healthy Lindsay Whalen back in the lineup. They have great crowds for home games and with a title on the line they are anticipating a big showing and a deafening home crowd tonight. The Lynx are also 77-53 ATS at home against teams allowing 73+ points per game. Lay the points and play Minnesota.
