Premium Pick

Minnesota looks to bounce back from a last-second loss to the Sparks in Game 1 when Chelsea Gray hit a jumper with two seconds left to give Los Angeles an 85-84 win. Gray finished with 27 points while Candace Parker added 15 points and 12 rebounds for the Sparks. Maya Moore led the Lynx with 27 points and Sylvia Fowles finished with 22 points, and also grabbed 13 rebounds. The teams went OVER for the first time in five meetings as both had the hot hand, with the Sparks shooting 47.8 percent and the Lynx 50.0 percent from the field. The UNDER is 22-7 the last 29 meetings, and Los Angeles is 17-7 UNDER its last 24 games after a win. Minnesota is also 11-2 ATS its last 13 games when following a loss, and it has covered the number in five of its last seven home games. This is a must-win for the Lynx, and also look for the defense on both sides to clamp down after their Game 1 performances. Take the Lynx and the UNDER in Game 2.
