The Atlanta Dream will take on the Minnesota Lynx at the Target Center tonight. It will be the 3rd time these 2 teams play each other this season. Minnesota won both games by double digits.
Minnesota is 16-8 so far and 2nd in the Western Conference. The Lynx had the 1st spot for weeks until the Aces woke up and got hot. The Lynx are 5-5 in their last 10 games and lost their last 2 games. The most recent loss was by 7 points to the Indiana Fever at home.
They aren’t the greatest on offense, but definitely can get the job done. The Lynx rank 1st in 3-point shooting percentage and also 1st in assists. Otherwise, their offensive rating, points and rebounds per game are all middle of the pack.
This team is one of the better defensive teams in the league, ranking 1st in defensive rating and 2nd in steals. Minnesota likes to play a slower paced game and shoot their shots. It’ll be interesting to see if the Dream can speed up the game.
The Dream will look to break 7 game losing streak
Atlanta’s Rhyne Howard attempts to block Minnesota’s Alanna Smith’s shot.
Atlanta is 7-16 this season and sit 5th in the Eastern Conference. The Dream come into this game losing their last 7 games and going 1-9 in their last 10 games.
The Dream have played their last 10 game without their star Rhyne Howard, and we see how that is going for them. Before getting hurt she was leading the team in points per game while also contributing almost 5 boards a game.
This has been lost since. It has not been able to find a groove since losing Howard and they need to figure it out. They have one of the worst offenses in the league and their defense isn’t much better.
Let’s check out the odds and get into the picks.

We’re backing the Lynx here and we’ll cover those points. This is what we like to call a “get right spot” for Minnesota and they’ll be all over it. Going 10-3 at home so far this season, it’s a perfect spot all around.
This Lynx team also outperforms the Dream in every aspect of the game. They should handle business from top to bottom, beginning to end. Minnesota should honestly beat the breaks off them.
Atlanta should not be able to keep up with this team who will be hungry for a win after losing 2 games. I like for Napheesa Collier to have 20+ points and Kayla McBride to have 3+ 3-pointers made.
The 7.5 points is honestly low in my opinion. I really expected this to be more of a 10 point or more spread, so we love what we’re seeing. Lock it in as soon as you can because it will odds are move before tip off.
