Premium Pick

Washington got off to a good start with an 84-70 victory over Indiana, and the Mystics needed it after coming off of two injury-filled seasons. Elena Delle Donne scored a team-leading 21 points on 8-for-16 shooting, and Natasha Cloud added 17 points for the Mystics, who held the Fever to 42% shooting and just five of 22 on 3-pointers. Washington also shot 20 free throws to Indiana's eight. Minnesota was blown out, 97-74, at Seattle while shooting just 39.2%, and the Storm shot 53.0% as the Lynx looked bad on both ends of the floor. That game went OVER by 9.5 points. Five of the last seven meetings have gone OVER, and the OVER is 12-5 in Washington's last 17 games after an ATS win. The Lynx are also 20-8 OVER in their last 28 following a loss, and Washington has covered five of the last eight meetings. Play the Mystics and the OVER.
