Tips and predictions for Lynx at Sun

forecast

Sun 78, Lynx 74

Money line

CONNECTICUT (+110) is very valuable as a short dog at home. The Sun have lost their last two home games against Western Conference teams, but they have won 4 of their previous 6 games.

The Sun are looking to finish strong, and a win over the Lynx would bring back some of the good feelings from the team's fast start.

Against the spread

If you want a little security, play CONNECTICUT +2.5 (-115) is worth a look. However, it is obviously not as rewarding as taking the sun straight up.

Unless you have a strong belief that Minnesota -2.5 (-105) will win by 1 or 2 points, there's no point taking the few points. Instead, bet on the moneyline for much better value.

Over/Under

UNDER 154.5 (-110) is the slim one, but go with a Half-unit game maximum.

The Under is on a 5-1 run in their last 6 games against Connecticut and is on a 6-2 run in their last 8 tries against Western Conference teams.

For Minnesota, the overall record was low at 5-2 in their last seven games, while the underdogs had a narrow edge at 3-2 in their last five road games.
