Las Vegas @ Minnesota picks

The Lynx have won four out of their last five games and those four victories have came in double-digit deficits. I have my sights set on that being a result tonight over the Las Vegas Aces. Napheesa Collier has been blowing it out of the water with making her case for MVP — the All-Star game may have foreshadowed what's to come for the league's leader scorer as she leads the pack with an average of 23.0 points per game.  Minnesota has looked like a thorough team all season and I'm taking Collier & Co. to assert their dominance at home over the lowly Aces. The current spreads stands at -9.0 for Minnesota but I'm laying the points with the favorites to win by a wider margin than what this spread is giving. Las Vegas will be too overwhelmed and under-womaned to keep up with this team.

McBride has dropped in 17+ points in four straight games. I’m banking on her to continue that streak tonight, with the Aces vulnerable on the second night of a back-to-back set.
