Premium Pick

The Minnesota Lynx are out to defend their WNBA Championship from last season. They won game one by just 4 points, but had a comfortable lead, and the final score was not indicitive of how the game was played. San Antonio shot well over 50% and was still coming up short, and it isn't likely they will shoot like that in game two. The Lynx are 20-5 in the playoffs over the last three years, including game one this season, and have now won eight straight playoffs games. The Silver Stars have not shown much in the playoffs since 2008 as they have been 2-12 straight-up in their last 14 playoffs games. The Lynx have been a perfect 6-0 ATS in their last six games when following a day off, and have covered 7 of the last 10 against the Silver Stars. The Lynx are healthy now, and will likely bring the "A" game here to dispose of San Antonio. Play on Minnesota.
