Lynx vs. Wings Preview
The 8-0 Lynx put their perfect record on the against the Wings. Dallas certainly isn't as talented as Minnesota, but is expected to get rookie sensation Paige Bueckers back in the lineup tonight.
Bueckers, the No. 1 overall pick from this year's draft, was averaging 14.1 points, 4.7 rebounds and 6.7 assists per game prior to her injury.
Lynx vs. Wings Prediction, Betting Analysis
Paige Bueckers is likely to return, which makes this a great environment for a DiJonai Carrington under.
For one, her minutes are likely to be cut into a bit, as she averaged 31.2 minutes per game with Bueckers out, compared to 24.2 before Bueckers' injury. She also saw a MASSIVE jump in her assist rate with Bueckers out, tallying 14 assists across the three games Bueckers missed, after tallying just two (!!) in the seven games prior.
I think some of that growth will stick, but overall there's still plenty of value on this under today.
Best Bet: DiJonai Carrington Under 21.5 Points, Rebounds, & Assists (-125)
