Minnesota at Chicago

The Sky has played well at home all year at 8-2, but after a 5-0 start, they are just 3-2 in their last five, and a few have been very tight. Minnesota is no slouch on the road as they are the only team in the WNBA that isn't in first place, yet owns a winning road record. This is a Lynx team that has won at Phoenix, at San Antonio, and at Indiana by a total of 42 points, or 14 points a game. Those three teams are 27-6 at home otherwise, so the Lynx seem to get geared-up for these spots, and I think they catch the Sky off guard here. The Sky have been brutal off a straight-up win at just 1-8 ATS in their last nine. They come into this one with apparent struggles against the West as well at 4-10 ATS in their last 14. The Lynx are capable of the upset here, and I'll go with them in this one.
