ASA WNBA play on Indiana Fever +5.5 at Minnesota Lynx, 8 PM ET - The Lynx are in a very tough scheduling spot here having played their biggest rival last night (Aces), and now have get the Fever who are rested. Minnesota has won two HUGE games against Las Vegas and are now playing their 3rd game in four nights. This is also their 4th game in 8 days. Indiana last played on August 18th, a home win over Seattle. Since the Olympic break the Fever have had a pair of quality wins over Phoenix and the Storm. Indiana and Minnesota met on this court July 17th with the Fever winning 81-74 as a +4.5-point underdog. If you watched that game, you know there wasn’t a home crowd advantage for the Lynx and there were far more Caitlyn Clark/Fever fans in attendance. Indiana has some of the worst defensive numbers on the season but have been much better in recent games, ranking 7th in Defensive Net Rating in their last 5. Over that same 5-game period the Fever have the best Offensive Net Rating in the league at 114.5. Minnesota is the better overall team and Napheesa Collier is one of the league's best players, but the scheduling situation warrants a bet on Indiana.
