Chicago opens the season on the road against a powerhouse opponent with a new coach in Amber Stocks. The Chicago Sky was 18-16 last season, but are a completely new team with a new coach and new faces to incorporate into the lineup. In trading Elena Delle Donne to Washington, they acquired Kahleah Copper and Stefanie Dolson, and drafted South Carolina's Alaina Coates. Coates is not 100% after undergoing ankle surgery. Minnesota was second in the WNBA last year in points, assists, and points allowed, plus third in rebounding. The Lynx have few changes for this season. Lindsay Whalen, Seimone Augustus, Maya Moore, Rebekkah Brunson and Sylvia Fowles are one of the most recognized and talented starting lineups in the league. Minnesota's starting five averages 10.4 years of WNBA experience. Minnesota will have a chip on its shoulder after a heart-breaking postseason finish, winning three WNBA titles since 2011, and 3.1 seconds from a fourth in 2016. And the team is 95-69 ATS in a home game where the total is greater than 150. Play Minnesota.
