Premium Pick

Minnesota still hasn't covered the spread in any of its five games this season as the oddsmakers have been overvaluing the defending champions. The Lynx have lost their last two games outright at Washington and Atlanta and they're a fairly big favorite again tonight. Phoenix is led by Brittney Griner, who averages 20.8 points, and DeWanna Bonner who grabs 6.2 rebounds per game. The Mercury has gone OVER four of its five games this season while averaging 82.2 points per game and shooting 45.7 percent from the field and 34.0 percent from three-point range. Phoenix is 21-9 OVER its last 30 road games and 8-1 OVER its last nine games against teams with losing records dating to last season. Five of the last six meetings at Minnesota have gone OVER and the Lynx are 1-5 ATS their last six home games. Take the Mercury and the OVER.
