Wings vs Valkyries Prediction
As I mentioned in the game 1 write-up, the Wings have a puncher’s chance because of Bueckers, but they don’t have the reliable depth to scare the Valkyries. Bueckers played great, but she had to work hard for that production, and it wasn’t close to enough. The Valkyries are elite defensively, and if you don’t have a second and third option, it’s going to be a long night. Outside of Bueckers, everyone on this Wings roster is inconsistent. There are also defensive issues. This line is soft. Give me the Valkyries in a comfortable win and advancement to the next round.
