WNBA Premium Play 08/28: San Antonio Silver Stars @ Minnesota Lynx


WNBA - 655 San Antonio Silver Stars @ 656 Minnesota Lynx

Projected line: Minnesota by 12 points

Minnesota had some problems before the Olympic break, mainly due to Taj McWilliams-Franklin's physical problems. Thanks to that, they struggled on defense. But now, after the break, they are once again a healthy and so, their defense is back at top level, as their defensive ratings in their four games after the break of 88.60, 76.98, 93.74 and 88.56 shows. At the same time, they keep dominating the rebounds and they are now at their best, ready to make a statement game tonight, after losing at San Antonio due to their struggling period, where they had their worst defensive game of the season where they allowed 93 points and 125.42 defensive rates.

San Antonio saw their great run finished in LA where they were crushed by the Spars 77-101, in a game where they were outrebounded due to the bigger inside presence from the Sparks. If San Antonio had problems at LA, the same will happen today due to Minnesota's powerful inside game. With the Lynx ready to get revenge and make a statement tonight, I believe they will crush San Antonio like they would crush any other team in the league on this spot. Therefore, I'll be taking Minnesota tonight.

Pick: 3 units (Single Dime Play) on 656 Minnesota Lynx (-7,5) @ -110 / 1.91 on 5Dimes
