Minnesota Lynx vs. Connecticut Sun: A Comedy of Errors (with a Side of Dominance)

The Minnesota Lynx, WNBA royalty with a 31-9 record, are favored to stomp the Connecticut Sun (-950 moneyline, -12.5 to -13.5 spread) like a toddler on a trampoline. The Sun, 10-28 and currently playing playoff basketball (if the playoff is "how to lose to non-playoff teams"), have no answers for Napheesa Collier, who’s been a human highlight reel against them. Remember her 33-point eruption on May 23? The Sun’s defense is like a sieve made of Jell-O—Collier’s 2.5-assist prop is a lock (-180) if she’s not busy dropping 25+ points.

Kayla McBride, the three-point wizard, has a 2.5-make prop (-136 at FanDuel) that’s practically a freebet. She’s hit 5/9 threes against the Sun this season—expect her to light ’em up again while the Sun’s Tina Charles (4 points in two prior meetings) fumbles for loose balls like a confused toddler.

The over/under is 163.5, but this feels like a "Lynx cover the spread, then laugh about it" night. With the Lynx’s top-scoring offense vs. the Sun’s bottom-four defense, look for Collier to drop a double-double (150 at Fanatics) and McBride to flirt with a triple-double (if assists count).

Final Score Prediction: Minnesota 95, Connecticut 72. The Sun will win exactly zero of these props. Their best bet? Praying Collier misses a free throw. Even then, the Lynx would probably make it count. 🏀🔥
