The Storm are 1-4 ATS in the last 5 meetings.
Randy’s Pick
The Seattle Storm have nothing to play for now that they’re bounced from the playoff race, and they’ve lost all 3 games to the Aces and neither game was close. The Las Vegas Aces haven’t had much covering success lately, but they need to take advantage of a game like this with the Liberty just 1.5 games behind them. The Aces mess around here, and they could be in trouble. Thick line, but it’s nothing the Aces cant manage, assuming they’re motivated. Based on the previous 3 matches, this could get ugly.
