It's been an underdog series, providing two close games. Now the best team in the WNBA, Minnesota, is an underdog for only the second time all season. Minnesota is loaded with talent and depth led by WNBA MVP Sylvia Fowles and having a healthy Lindsay Whalen back running the offense. Minnesota shot 50% from the field and won the rebounding battle in Game 1, then evened the series in Game 2 winning the boards by +7, shooting 44.4%, as Fowles grabbed 17 boards. They held Los Angeles to 38.7% shooting and led by 20 in the third quarter. All five Lynx starters scored in double figures. Now they head out on the road but the Lynx are 26-9-1 ATS after a spread loss. They match up well with Los Angeles, so back the super-talented dog and play Minnesota.
