Fire vs. Lynx Preview
How could you not want to bet Olivia Miles right now?
The rookie point guard looks like an MVP candidate, recording 18.6 points, 5.8 assists and 5.1 rebounds per game while leading the Lynx to a 10-3 record.
By the way, this is without Napheesa Collier, who has been the MVP runner-up in back-to-back seasons.
Miles has been incredible and is dominating the Rookie of the Year outlook with her stellar floor generalship and reading of defenses, which is propelling this Lynx offense to start the year.
I'm just not expecting a ton of resistance from the expansion Portland Fire, who are 7-8 and second-to-last in defense.
Fire vs. Lynx Prediction
I'm playing Olivia Miles over 23.5 points + assists.
She has surpassed this line in seven straight games and has been over 24.5 in five straight, if you miss out on 23.5 on the market.
Best Bet: Olivia Miles Over 23.5 Points + Assists (-114, DraftKings)
