Chicago Sky vs. Minnesota Lynx Prediction

I’m on the Lynx here. I know it’s a back-to-back spot for the Lynx against a Sky team that’s been playing competitive basketball and have covered in four straight, but the Lynx are just heads and shoulders the better team and continue to win games by margin at home this season. The Sky have been able to beat bad teams and cover against others in favorable spots, but the Lynx are just better across the board and I think the Lynx add another victim to their home resume. Give me Minnesota laying the points here.

Chris Ruffolo's Pick: Minnesota Lynx -15.5
