Shane’s Free Pick

Both of these teams are coming off impressive victories, but I have been more impressed with the Lynx. Collier would be getting MVP consideration if she was on a better team, and she’s going to have a big game here. The Mercury aren’t going to be keeping up and the Lynx are going to get the job done here.
