Minnesota at Connecticut

Premium Pick

Minnesota has the definite motivational edge as it has to win to have a chance to make the playoffs while Connecticut already has clinched a berth and position in the postseason. The Lynx also want to redeem themselves after an unexpected blowout loss to Seattle on Friday when they shot just 36.5% while celebrating Sylvia Fowles' career. Minnesota still has won four of its last six and it's in double revenge mode after losing the first two meetings this year. The Lynx forgot to play defense against the Storm, which shot 52.8%, and I look for the Lynx to make that correction in this matchup. The Lynx have covered seven of nine following a loss and seven of nine overall on the road. Five of the last seven meetings at Connecticut have gone UNDER, and the Sun have stayed UNDER in seven of their past nine home games. Take the Lynx on the moneyline and the UNDER.
