- Favorite of the Month. My selection is on Minnesota minus the points over Portland at 8 pm et on Monday.
I'm not sure the betting marketplace is properly quantifying the Lynx's dominance this season. Minnesota does check in off a hard-fought loss in Las Vegas on Saturday but that only served to snap its eight-game winning streak. The Lynx are still 7-2 ATS over their last nine games and I look for them to dispose of the expansion Fire without much difficulty on Monday. Portland is coming off an 'upset' win at home against Dallas on Saturday. The Fire were fortunate that the Wings shot poorly in that contest. Note that Portland has now allowed its last three opponents to hoist up 75, 72 and 74 field goal attempts - that's what I like to call 'matador-like' defense. The Lynx are poised to take advantage as they enter having knocked down 37, 38 and 36 field goals over their last three games. Take Minnesota (10*).
