Seattle at Minnesota

Many gave this Seattle Storm team little chance to even win a game in this series vs. the powerful Minnesota Lynx, but here they are knotted at one game apiece. The Storm finished the regular season a disappointing 16-18, but this is a team with a lot of veteran players with a lot of resolve, and playoffs experience - they won't go down without a fight. They hung in all game here before losing by 8 points in the opener, and won at home in overtime by 7. The line here is certainly too high for this one. The Storm is playing their best basketball of the season and have played above the line, covering six straight games. The Lynx are now 1-6 ATS in their last seven conference semifinal games and just 3-8 ATS on a single day of rest in their last 11. Play on Seattle.
