Sunday's Best WNBA Picks & Predictions: Sky vs. Lynx
Odds courtesy of FanDuel Sportsbook
Chicago Sky +15 (-112)
Despite only recording five wins on the season, the Chicago Sky have found success in two out of the last three games. Minnesota certainly presents a difficult assignment this evening, however, we feel Chicago can stay within fifteen points in this contest. This is especially true against a Lynx team who will be playing their second game in as many nights.
Chicago has only trailed by 15 points or more at the end of the fourth quarter in one of their last seven games. The Sky have three wins over that span, and have held opponents to 3.0 less than their season average over the previous three contests. Chicago's pressure could have a tad more success in this game considering this will be a back-to-back for Minnesota.
Obviously we cannot confidently suggest that Chicago comes away with an outright win against a Minnesota team that is undefeated at home this season. However, the fifteen-point deficit seems a bit ambitious on the second leg of a back-to-back.
Angel Reese Over 31.5 Points + Rebounds + Assists (-120)
Angel Resse is absolutely smashing on the floor as of late, and today the 23-year old faces off against one of the best defensive units in the league, the Minnesota Lynx. Reese is coming off four consecutive games with at least 32 points + rebounds + assists . The Baltimore-born forward is averaging 17.25 points, 17.5 boards and 4.75 dimes over the last four contests.
The efficiency has also increased for the Chicago forward in recent games as well. Over the last five contests, Reese has finished with a field-goal percentage of 50% or higher in three out of four contests. The LSU standout has been nearly perfect from the line over the last seven games, missing only two attempts out of the last 37 trips to the line.
The Sky forward has only failed to record more than 31.5 P+R+A in one of the previous seven games. Angel Reese is currently in excellent form on the glass, connecting on field-goal attempts, and looks to be in a fantastic spot to clear the suggested total for points, rebounds and assists today against the Lynx.
