Result:
LOSS

The Minnesota Lynx may be playing second fiddle to the Phoenix Mercury in the overall standings, but this Minnesota team is far from done in an effort to repeat their championship performance from last season. They have dealt with injuries all season, but are finally healthy and key players are getting back to normal minutes with big contributions. While they fell short at Phoenix by 2 points, they certainly proved that Phoenix doesn't have much of an edge on them - if any at all. Minnesota is 31-3 in their last 34 home games, including the playoffs, and are seldom threatened here. Los Angeles has underachieved all season, and down the stretch they are just 4-6 in their last 10 games. They are also 7-21 ATS in their last 28 vs. a winning team, and overall they are 0-6 ATS in their last six and have taken the donut on the road vs. Minnesota in their last 5 at 0-5 ATS. Take Minnesota.
