Aces Defense Has To Be Better

The Aces in the last game faced off against the Lynx and it was the defense in the last game that was a major issue. The Aces offense scored 87 points but the defense was a major issue, and for any shot the defense is going to need to be better. Jackie Young had a strong game putting up 26 points, six rebounds, and four assists. Kelsey Plum also oculdn’t be stopped putting up 20 points. Two games ago, the Aces gave up only 71 points to the Sparks, and that offense will need to come back here. The Aces are averaging 87.8 points while thier defense is giving up 83 points per game. The offense is ranked 1st in basketball, but this game is about the defense. 

Lynx Have Confidence

The Lynx have a ton of confidence heading into this game, especially with the way they played in the last game. The Lynx scored 98 points and that was enough for the victory. Naphessa Collier is playing like the MVP and she finished with 23 points,  seven rebounds, and four assists. Courtney Williams also put up 22 points, 10 assists, and seven rebounds. The Lynx are averaging 82.3 points while thier defense is giving up 75.5 points per game. The offense is ranked 6th while the defense is ranked 2nd. Collier is averaging 20.4 points per game. 

Las Vegas Aces vs Minnesota Lynx Prediction

There will be no defense in this game. The Aces defense gave up 98 points in the last game, and they are going to struggle again to defend. The Aces offense is the top in the WNBA, though, and they are going to have Nossie running up the score here. This is a game where both teams are going to go over the 90-point mark, and the over is going to end up cashing with ease.
