Dallas Wings vs. Golden State Valkyries Prediction

I’m on the Valkyries here. The Valkyries have been the better team in this matchup for some time now and that was clearly evident in game one. Dallas has the talent but it just feels like this is the year where Dallas took the progression of making the playoffs and next year they take the next step. Until then, there’s too much going against Dallas for me to back them, even as home underdogs here. Give me the Valkyries.

Chris Ruffolo's Pick: Golden State -4.5
