Minnesota Lynx vs Connecticut Sun Prediction

The Connecticut Sun are a legit title contender that plays hard at both ends of the floor, so it wouldn’t be shocking to see another win. The Sun have won 5 of the last 6 games against, the Lynx. However, the Lynx have been too good and too consistent to think they’ll lose another playoff game at home. This is a must win for the Lynx. The line is reasonable, and the Lynx should have a better offensive showing. I’ll lay the points with the Lynx.
