After taking their first L at home, the Lynx will be tested even more. The New York Liberty will take on the Minnesota Lynx at the Target Center. This will be the first time these two teams meet this season and first-time season last year’s finals.
New York is 17-8 this season and 1st in the Eastern Conference. They come into this game off a bad loss to the Wings on Monday. The Liberty are 6-4 in their last ten games and 5-5 on the road so far this year.
Breanna Stewart is currently out with a lower leg injury and will miss the game. Sabrina Ionescu and Jonquel Jones will have to hold things down. This team looked lost without Stewart vs the Wings though, so something has to change.
Offensively and defensively, the Liberty are one of the best teams in the league. They have elite scoring and pace while also protecting the ball and playing solid defense. New Yorks in the top three for both offensive and defensive ratings in the league.

Minnesota will look to bounce back at home vs. Liberty
Lynx forward Napheesa Collier brings the ball into the offensive zone.
Minnesota is 22-4 so far and 1st in the Western Conference as well as the best team in the league. They come into this game off their first home loss of the season to the Dream on Sunday that they should’ve won. The Lynx are 7-3 in their last 10 games and 14-1 at home this year.
Napheesa Collier is putting on an MVP performance this year. She’s averaging 23.5 points and 7.7 rebounds per game. Collier has been the best player in the league so far and she even missed a few games with a back injury.
If you’ve read my articles on this team before, then you know their depth is what makes them so good. This team is stacked between about 6 players and has decent help on the bench if needed. Luckily, they haven’t had to play the bench too often this season.
This is going to be a great game as they’re both the best in the league and it’s their first meeting since last year’s finals. Let’s check out the odds and get into the Liberty vs Lynx picks.

Both teams have a lot to play for in this game, so I think we see a close battle. They are both in bounce back spots after the Liberty lost 2 bad games and the Lynx just dropping a home game. This should have them both on their toes and they want to get back in the win column.
These two teams are the best in the on offense and defense. They both rank in the top three of both categories, with the Lynx being first in each one. For the Liberty to keep this game close, they need Jones and Ionescu to cook due to not having Stewart.
Give me Jonquel Jones to record 15 or more points for -120. She has been playing great since her return from injury and should absorb a good portion of Stewarts points down low. Jones will have to deal with Collier and Smith, but I think she has a game tonight.
The other play I like is Sabrina Ionescu to get 5 or more rebounds for -145. We’re going to pay the juice man here as Sabrina has hit this line in six of her last ten games as well as her last three straight vs Minnesota. Ionescu is going to have to play a full role to again help fill the void of Stewart.
