ASA play on Minnesota Lynx -8.5 vs Washington Mystics, 8 PM ET - Minnesota was looking like the best team in the league with a 13-3 start to the season and a win over New York in the Commissioner's Cup, but have faltered in their last two games giving us value today versus today, Mystic. The Lynx have the 2nd best average point differential in the league at +7.9PPG, have the 2nd best Net Rating, are 1st defensively in Net Rating and allow the 2nd fewest PPG at 74.6. Minnesota puts up 83PPG at home this season with a 9-2 SU record and a +9.5PPG differential. The Lynx are coming off a pair of losses to the two best teams in the Eastern Conference (Connecticut and New York) and should rebound here with a great effort. Washington will be playing their 3rd straight road game after a win in L.A. and a 21-point loss in Las Vegas. The Aces were just favored by 16-points at home against the Mystic and now the Lynx are laying less than 10-points. Washington is 2-9 SU on the road this season with an average differential of minus -7.9PPG, one of the worst numbers in the W. The Mystic have the 2nd worst Offensive Net Rating in the league and will have a very tough time scoring against this elite Lynx defense. We expect the Lynx to get back into the win column here with a double-digit victory.
