Lynx vs Dream Prediction
The Dream were attractive on paper entering the season, and they’re off to a fine start. Oddsmakers clearly like what they’re seeing as well. However, the Lynx might be banged up, but they’ve helped their own as well. The Lynx have shown great balance, and despite not having Collier, this Minnesota roster still has game changers, which include the ROY favorite in Miles. You don’t get the Lynx as home dogs often, and they’re playing too well to turn down in the underdog role. This is showing too much respect toward the Dream. Give me the bucket.
