Minnesota Lynx (-10, -110)
Las Vegas Aces

As mentioned before, the Lynx seem to be back on track after an impressive road win against the Mercury two nights ago. Despite their success in the win column, Minnesota continues to disappoint as favorites (2-7) and the Aces have actually done quite well as underdogs (9-5-1). Some other stats to consider:

-Minnesota has covered in 2 of their last 3 games but are just 1-6 this year when favorited by 5.5 points or more
-Las Vegas is 4-2 when getting 10 points or more. They are 3-2-1 at home as an underdog

Phoenix Mercury (-8.5, -110)

disappointing this season as they are just 4-4 in those situations (meanwhile, they are 5-1 as underdogs). Chicago, quite simply, has been easy to lay money against this season and if you’ve done that in every game so far, you’ve made out quite well.

-Phoenix has been favorited by 5.5-9.5 in all four games that they have covered as a favorite
-Chicago is 3-7-1 when getting points and just 1-3-1 at home

Connecticut Sun (-8, -110)
Indiana Fever

Something has to give in this one. The Sun will look to get back to their winning ways and Indiana will try to win for just the second time this season. That four game losing streak for the Sun has seen them fall to 5-5 as a favorite this year, but this game seems like a nice line for them to get back on track.

-Indiana is 2-4-1 when getting between 5.5-9.5 points and just 1-3 at home
-Connecticut is 3-3 when the lines is in that same range and 2-3 on the road
