Commissioner's Cup games continue on Wednesday with three more contests on the slate. With so many games on the schedule, there are plenty of opportunities for good betting angles. Here are a few of my favorite WNBA picks and bets for Wednesday’s game Lynx vs. Storm.
Wednesday’s Best WNBA Picks & Bets: Lynx vs. Storm

Minnesota Lynx at Seattle Storm WNBA Picks
Minnesota has picked up right where they left off last year after finishing runners up behind the Liberty in the WNBA Championship. The Lynx are 9-0, boasting an ORtg of 110.4, but also have by far the worst SOS in the league.
Despite success in the win column, the Lynx are only 4-5 ATS with their last two wins coming against a Paige Bueckers-less Dallas and an Alyssa Thomas-less Phoenix. This is a squad that has played close games with full strength Wings, Sun and Sparks teams.
On Wednesday they'll travel to take on the Storm who gave them a scare in Minnesota two weeks ago. The Storm have had some strong performances, particularly at home, with impressive wins over Las Vegas and Phoenix. They should have another strong performance on Wednesday.
Seattle has been particularly good at running opponents off the three-point line and making shots difficult when they don't, allowing just 32.1% from deep on the year. Minnesota attempted only 19 in the previous meeting of these two, nearly five below their season average. If Seattle can contain them again on Wednesday they'll cover and possibly hand the Lynx their first loss of the season.
Pick: Storm +4.5 (-115)
