Yesterday’s Results for Seattle Storm vs Golden State Valkyries

ASA West Conf WNBA Game of the Month! 71% RUN

Analysis: ASA WNBA play on Seattle Storm -5.5 at Golden State Valkyries, 8:30 pm ET - These two teams met earlier in June with the Valkyries winning 76-70 as a 10-point home underdog. The difference today is that Golden State will be missing four, potentially 5-players from that previous meeting. Three players are in Europe competing for their National teams and starting PG Leite has missed 3-games with a back injury. Seattle is playing well and looking for a little payback after their loss here earlier this month. The Storm have won 4 of their last five games and 7 of their last nine overall. In looking at the Storm’s last ten games we see they have the 2nd best Net rating in the league at +8.9, only behind the Minnesota Lynx. They have the best overall Offensive Net rating in that stretch of games and 3rd best Defensive Net rating. GST has played above expectations all season long and deserve a ton of credit for being 8-7 on the season, but depth is going to be a major factor in today’s outcome and too much for the Valkyries to overcome. The Storms last four road wins have all come by 7 or more points.
