Las Vegas coach Becky Hammon was named the 2022 WNBA Coach of the Year after leading the Aces to a 26-10 record and a No. 1 seed in the postseason. The Aces swept Phoenix in two games by an average of 26.5 points in the first round, and now they face Seattle, which comes off of a two-game sweep against Washington. Chelsea Gray and Kelsey Plum each averaged 22 points against the Mercury while Jackie Young and A'ja Wilson averaged 15.5 and 12.5 points, respectively. Needless to say, the Aces have plenty of firepower, and they scored 109 points in the last meeting with Seattle on August 14. Also, Las Vegas has won five of the last six meetings. Seattle is just 7-22 ATS in its last 29 games versus Western Conference teams and 6-16 ATS following a win. The line value here is on the home team to win straight up. Go with the Aces on the moneyline.
