Result: Loss
ASA play on Connecticut Sun (Moneyline -135) vs Minnesota Lynx – Game 3 Friday 7:30 PM ET - This is a tough one for me as I’ve liked Minnesota all season long and felt they were the ‘sneaky’ best team in the league. But Connecticut seems to have the Lynx number, and it starts with their defense on Napheesa Collier. Collier is 5th in the league in scoring at 20.4PPG but the Sun have held her to 19 and 9-points in the two games of this series. The Sun have won 7 of the last ten meetings with the Lynx. In Game 1 of this series, the Sun shot well at 45% overall and 35% from Deep. In Game 2 the Sun struggled from the field hitting just 36% and 25%. I am betting there will be a positive shooting regression for the Sun at home where they shot 44% overall and 33% from beyond the arc on the season. Not only that, but this Sun team is one of the best defensive teams in the W and the Lynx shot 45% from the field and 42% from the 3-point line. Connecticut had the best overall Defensive Net rating on the season which propelled them to an average +/- of +8PPG at home this season.
