- The Lynx have been averaging a double-digit margin over their first 14 games of this season as they have been one of the best teams in the WNBA.
- Atlanta is very inconsistent with its outside shooting, while the Lynx are the best three-point shooting team in the WNBA.
The Atlanta Dream will visit the Minnesota Lynx on Wednesday night in WNBA action featuring two teams currently in the top eight in the league standings. Minnesota is playing some of the best basketball in the W and will look to continue to do so, as they face a Dream team that knows they are capable of better basketball than they have shown so far. Keep reading for our WNBA betting picks for Dream vs Lynx from Minneapolis.
This game will be played at Target Center at 8:00 PM ET on Wednesday, June 19, 2024.
Atlanta Dream
The Atlanta Dream come into Wednesday night’s WNBA action with a record of 6-6, sitting in sixth place in the league standings. But the Dream have not looked like the team they were a season ago, as their offense has sputtered at every turn so far in 2024. Atlanta ranks 10th in the 12-team WNBA in points per game, something they will need to improve on if they are going to upset the Lynx on the road here.
It is worth noting that the Dream will be a little short-handed in the guard department going into Dream vs Lynx tonight. Along with Jordin Canada, who has missed the whole season so far, Aerial Powers is out for this game due to illness for Atlanta. Powers has been an aggressive scorer early in the year off the bench for Atlanta and being without her could hurt an already struggling offense.
Minnesota Lynx
The Minnesota Lynx are 11-3 to start the 2024 WNBA season, good for third place in the league so far. They come into tonight’s game off of a double-digit win over the Dallas Wings, where the Lynx ran away with things in the fourth quarter. Tonight, Minnesota will look to remain dominant at home, where they enter tonight’s Dream vs Lynx matchup with a home record of 7-1.
So far this year, the three-point shooting of the Lynx has carried them to their early-season success. Minnesota has the best three-point shooting percentage in the league, making 40.5% of their threes, while no other team has made 35% of their shots from the outside. As long as Minnesota keeps making their outside shots, they will be in good shape in games like this one.
