Lynx vs. Sun Preview

This is a pick mostly based on value. The Lynx are the best team in the league, and the Sun has been one of the worst throughout the season.

However, Minnesota already clinched a playoff spot. With a healthy roster and no other motivation, we could see heavy rotation and an opportunity to rest key players.

Connecticut is practically playing for pride right now, but the team has been improving in the latter part of the season. They have won five of their last 10 games, so considering their overall 10-28 record, this is a rare and very positive run.

The Sun are also coming off a 101-95 win against the Dallas Wings.

With a line as high as 13.5 and stakes so low for this game, it's worth the risk to back the Sun to cover.

Lynx vs. Sun Prediction

Target low-win-percentage WNBA teams (≤30%) coming off a win and now playing as an underdog (spread 2.5–18).

These teams often remain undervalued by the market, and bettors overreact to their last win, creating inflated lines and betting value.

Best Bet: Connecticut Sun +13.5
