Aces vs. Lynx Pick and Betting Analysis
At the beginning of the season, you probably would have picked this out as the game of the day.
No A'ja Wilson is part of this line, but the Aces have also just been bad.
The Aces have been dicey with Wilson and now they don't have her against a Lynx team that has really settled in. Minnesota's offense has turned around and Napheesa Collier is playing out of her mind right now.
I was looking at this before the Wilson news was official and wanted to wait it out and then bet the Lynx. Unfortunately, the line moved too far, so I'm not going to be able to do that.
However, just because I don't have a play on a side doesn't mean I'm passing on this game entirely.
Kayla McBride is averaging 15.4 points per game this season and I think she'll get to that number again tonight.
McBride scored just four points on Saturday, but had an unusually poor shooting night as she went 0-for-7 from 3.
On the season, she has scored 15 or more points in five of seven games. Lets back her to do it once more.
