(611) Minnesota Lynx at (612) Dallas Wings
When the Wings are playing at home, I’m always leaning towards the over. The Wings have the worst defensive rating in the league this season by a wide margin. However, they make up for it with one of the best home offenses, averaging 88.36 points over 14 home games.
From a trend standpoint, the Wings are 11-3 to the over at home, including 8-1 as home underdogs and 4-0 when they are the more rested team. Meanwhile, the Lynx have the highest offensive rating in the league since the Olympic break, averaging 88.6 points per game, with the Wings close behind at 88.4 points per game in that span.
With the Lynx scoring efficiently and pushing the pace, the Wings will likely need to keep up, leading to a high-scoring affair. I’m taking the over, good up to 173.
