Wings at Lynx 5/23/18 - WNBA Picks & Predictions

The Dallas Wings look for their second win of the season when they visit the winless Minnesota Lynx on Wednesday in a WNBA showdown. Dallas won for the first time on Sunday with a 101-78 win over the Atlanta Dream. Skyler Diggins-Smith led the Wings with 25 points, while Liz Cambage scored 21 points, grabbed nine rebounds and blocked four shots. The Wings opened the season on Friday with an 86-78 loss to the Phoenix Mercury.

After the opening game of the season, Lindsay Whalen leads the Lynx in scoring and assists averaging 17.0 points and 9.0 assists per game. Sylvia Fowles is the second leading scorer and leading rebounder averaging 15.0 points and 12.0 rebounds per game. Four Lynx players are averaging double-figures in scoring. Rebekkah Brunson leads the team in shooting percentage at 80% after hitting 5 of her 6 shots in the opening game loss.

The Lynx have covered the spread in 6 of their last 8 games versus Dallas and 5 of their last 7 against Dallas at home in Minnesota. Home court edge plus huge depth edge is too much for Wings to even keep this close. Final Score Prediction, Minnesota Lynx win and cover ATS 89-74.
