Dallas Wings vs Minnesota Lynx

The teams already have met twice this season and Dallas came much closer the second time covering as an 11-point underdog in an 85-81 loss on May 21. What's more, Paige Bueckers has cleared concussion protocol and is expected to return for today's game. This is the biggest game of the year so far for the Wings, who have been competitive while not being able to come out on top in most games and now will oppose undefeated Minnesota. The Lynx are only 1-5 ATS their past six games as the oddsmakers consistently have them favored by too many points although they did finally cover against Phoenix on Tuesday. Dallas is 4-1 ATS the past five meetings and it has won five of its past seven home games outright against the Lynx. Take the Wings ATS and on the moneyline.

This already is the second meeting of the young season and Dallas looks to atone for its 99-84 loss in the opener on Friday. The Wings figure to only get better with No. 1 draft pick, Paige Bueckers, who scored 19 points against Seattle on Monday although the rest of the team had an off-night shooting. The game against the Storm stayed UNDER by 17.5 points as the Wings allowed 20 fewer points than against the Lynx three nights earlier. Dallas guard Arike Ogunbowale figures to shoot better than her 2-for-14 performance against the Storm. The Wings covered the spread the last three meetings in 2024 and they were much better defensively in their second game. Take the big points with the Wings, and bet this game UNDER.

Minnesota plays its second straight away from home, as well as its fourth road game in the last six contests. They played two nights ago at Phoenix. They're eighth in the 12-team league in offensive rebounds while Dallas ranks second. Dallas is working on two days of rest after a 93-90 upset of Las Vegas at home as a +9.5 dog. The Dallas offense is fifth in points scored and shooting (44.67%), plus sixth from the free throw line (77.9%). They're also sixth defensively in steals. This is their third straight home game, winning the first two, and this is a strong situational spot for the big home dog. Play Dallas. 

Minnesota is in a letdown spot after winning the Commissioner's Cup in a 94-89 victory over New York on Tuesday. Meanwhile, Dallas is looking to snap an 11-game losing streak and the Wings are getting huge odds value in this matchup. Dallas has been off since Sunday and the Wings are 9-2 ATS their past 11 games playing with at least three days rest. The last meeting was on June 17 and the Lynx outscored Dallas 24-15 in the fourth quarter to win 90-78 although the Wings covered the big number and shot 48 percent. The difference in the game was the fact the Lynx hit 23 of 24 free throws and Dallas got to the line just twice and made one of three. Look for an upset in this matchup. Take the Wings ATS and on the moneyline.
