Las Vegas Aces vs Seattle Storm Prediction
The Las Vegas Aces are 3-1 SU against the Storm, and 2 of those wins were by double digits. The Seattle Storm have played improved ball on the road lately, but their 9 road losses are the most of the top five teams. The Aces have caught fire over the last few weeks, looking more like the team we expected to see all season, and they’re 9-0-1 ATS in their last 10 games. When the Aces play to their potential, I still believe they’re the team to beat. Big number, but I’ll lean toward Vegas in game 1.
