New York Liberty vs. Minnesota Lynx Prediction
I’m on the Lynx here. I get the case to be made for the Liberty, but this is the ultimate revenge game for the Lynx who have had this game circled since losing the finals last year. The Lynx have also been extremely strong at home this season, and I honestly have zero interest in fading them in a spot like this. Give me the Lynx.
