Mystics vs Lynx predictions
As the Washington Mystics gear up to face the Minnesota Lynx, all eyes are likely on Ariel Atkins. Averaging a solid 15.8 points per game, Atkins is expected to be a key player in trying to secure a win for Washington. The team will also rely heavily on Julie Vanloo, whose playmaking skills have been essential this season, boasting an average of 5.1 assists per game. With Aaliyah Edwards pulling down nearly 6 rebounds a game, her performance under the basket will be crucial in keeping the Lynx's forwards in check.
On the flip side, the Minnesota Lynx are set to count on Napheesa Collier, who's been nothing short of spectacular this season, leading her team with an average of 20 points and 10.2 rebounds per game. This double-threat capability positions her as a formidable opponent in any matchup. Additionally, Courtney Williams, who's assisting at a rate of 5.5 per game, can be expected to set the pace and distribute the ball effectively, ensuring the Lynx maintain their rhythm offensively.
Considering the current form and momentum of both teams, it leans towards a favorable outcome for the Minnesota Lynx. They've been quite strong at home, holding an impressive 11-3 record at the Target Center, which definitely gives them the home-court advantage. The Lynx’s robust lineup and consistent performance this season suggest they're well-prepared to take another victory. Meanwhile, the Mystics will have to pull off something quite special to upset the odds in Minnesota. As fun as an underdog story can be, it might just be safer to bet on the Lynx in this matchup.
