Another two-game slate today. Pricing on both sites are a lot better than they were yesterday, so we shouldn’t see as many ties as we did. Let’s get down to business.

Dallas Wings @ Minnesota Lynx
Dallas have started the season reasonably well, and look to put pressure on the defending champs. Everything goes through Liz Cambage and Skylar Diggins-Smith on this team with Glory Johnson out. Look to them to perform once again tonight. On the value side of things, Kaela Davis is having a good start to the season. The Lynx are a great defensive team and we try not to pick on them at all.
After losing at the buzzer to a shorthanded Sparks team, the Lynx are looking to bounce back and get their season on track tonight. They’ll come out aggressive, looking to dominate the Wings. Sylvia Fowles has a tough matchup against Cambage, but we have seen her perform in tough matchups before. This is the perfect game for Maya Moore and Rebekkah Brunson to excel in. Also, do not sleep on Lindsay Whalen and Seimone Augustus here, even though the Wings have been good against guards.

Seattle Storm @ Phoenix Mercury
We have a rematch of the game on Sunday. For Seattle, look to Breanna Stewart and Jewell Loyd to lead the way once again. Sue Bird has traditional struggled against the Mercury and that continued Sunday. For value plays, we can look to Jordin Canada and Natasha Howard.
The Mercury have been perfect so far this season and are on a roll. Britney Griner continues to anchor this team and is in a great matchup tonight. DeWanna Bonner has been solid so far this season and she will look to continue her good form here. Diana Taurasi can always go off in any game, although this is not the best matchup for her. Briann January is finally finding her form on this Mercury team and offers good value at the point guard position.
