- The Lynx already have a road win over the Liberty under their belts this season from the Commissioner’s Cup final.
- The Lynx are the number-one three-point shooting team in the WNBA this season.
The New York Liberty and Minnesota Lynx will tangle on Tuesday night in the WNBA for the second Tuesday in a row. The last time these teams met, the Lynx won to secure the WNBA Commissioner’s Cup, something the Liberty will seek revenge for tonight. In our WNBA betting picks for Tuesday night, we break down this Lynx vs Liberty matchup.
This game will be played at Barclays Center at 7:00 PM ET on Tuesday, July 2, 2024.
Minnesota Lynx
The Minnesota Lynx enter Tuesday night’s action with a record of 14-4, which is good for third place in the league standings. However, the Lynx can jump back into the top-two in the standings with a victory over the Liberty tonight. That is certainly easier said than done, given how good the Liberty are, but Minnesota has proven it is capable of winning in New York already this year when they beat the Liberty for the Commissioner’s Cup.
For the Lynx, consistent three-point shooting will be their key to victory in tonight’s Lynx vs Liberty matchup. The Lynx got a huge contribution from Bridget Carleton from the outside in the Commissioner’s Cup final. If they can get something similar from their shooters tonight, the Lynx could make it 2-0 over the Lynx in New York so far this season.
New York Liberty
The New York Liberty have the best record in the WNBA so far this season. They are 16-3 on the year and a game ahead of the Connecticut Sun for the top spot in the standings. New York will aim to protect its top spot with a win here, as they also look to avenge their loss to the Lynx last week where the Liberty missed out on their first chance at a trophy this season.
New York’s offense was not the problem against the Lynx the last time those teams met. Instead, it was their defense that was the issue, as the Liberty gave up 94 points in that contest. If the Liberty do not stay attached to the shooters of the Lynx in this rematch, we could see a very similar result from Barclays Center.
