Prop Bets: Las Vegas Aces VS Minnesota Lynx 2025-06-17
"Lynx to Roar, Aces to Fold: A Statistical Farce with Napheesa’s One-Woman Show"
The Minnesota Lynx (-13, 1.11 implied probability of winning) are about to turn the Las Vegas Aces into a very bad poker analogy. With A’ja Wilson out nursing a concussion and the Lynx fueled by last season’s "zombie call" heartbreak, expect a 13-point romp that’ll make the spread look like a math homework problem for Vegas bookmakers.
Why the Lynx?
- Napheesa Collier (26.1 PPG, 8.8 RPG, 3.9 APG) is a triple threat who’ll likely shatter her 23.5-point prop bet by scoring 24 points, 9 rebounds, and 4 assists… and still have energy to tweet about it.
- The Lynx have won 4 of 5, while the Aces have lost 3 of 5—Vegas, you’re betting against a team that’s basically the WNBA’s version of a "struggle bus."
Why the Aces Might Not?
- Jackie Young (-20.5 prop) will try to carry the load but faces a Lynx defense that’s like a spam filter for bad shots. Her 19.8 PPG average? More like 19.8 "please don’t let me carry you, Aces."
- The total points over/under is 161.5, but with the Lynx’s defense and the Aces’ offensive woes, this game’s scoring might be slower than a’ja Wilson’s recovery from the concussion protocol.
Prop Bets to Mock
- Collier Over 23.5 Points: She’s the WNBA’s answer to a buffet—she’ll take everything.
- Young Over 20.5 Points: Good luck, Jackie. The Lynx will probably just… ignore you.
Final Score Prediction: Minnesota 89, Las Vegas 76 (Lynx cover the -13 spread by winning a game that’ll make Aces wish they’d bet on blackjack instead).
Disclaimer: This prediction is 70% math, 30% sarcasm. The Lynx’s motivation is real, though. That disputed call still haunts them more than this Aces team haunts anyone. 🐾🃏
