If you want to try and hang with mighty Minnesota, you need to play some defense, and Seattle can do that, tops in the WNBA in points allowed. Seattle is 20-7 ATS playing on one day of rest, as well as 5-1 ATS against a team with a winning record. Seattle turns up the defense against good teams, 6-1 UNDER the total against a team with a winning record. They like these Sunday get-away day games, too, 16-7 ATS on Sunday, plus 9-3 UNDER in the Storm's last 12 Sunday games. Seattle is 2-1 SU/ATS the last three games, even winning the last one at San Antonio as a +5 dog. Minnesota is a powerhouse, but overvalued by oddsmakers, on a 2-5 ATS run as well as 1-7 ATS following a win. They, too, can play defense, 4-1 UNDER the total against a team with a losing record and 4-1 UNDER playing on two days of rest. This is a good spot for the dog and a low scoring game, and when these teams meet, Seattle is 4-0 ATS in the last four meetings. And the UNDER is 6-1 in the last seven meetings. Play Seattle and Seattle/Minnesota UNDER the Total.
