The Minnesota Lynx and Seattle Storm are set to clash in a pivotal Commissioner’s Cup matchup today, marking the fourth game of the in-season tournament for both squads. The Lynx enter this contest with a perfect 9-0 record, standing as one of only two undefeated teams in the WNBA this season, alongside the New York Liberty. Their impressive form has positioned them at the top of the Commissioner’s Cup standings in the Western Conference, and they are looking to extend both their regular season and Cup dominance.
Minnesota has been a defensive powerhouse so far this year. They are holding opponents to just 73.8 points per game, which ranks second in the league. Their stingy defense has also limited opposing teams to just 39.4% shooting from the field, another mark that places them second overall.
Perhaps most impressively, the Lynx have been suffocating from the perimeter, allowing a league-best 27.8% from three-point range. This defensive intensity was on full display in their most recent game, an 81-65 rout of the Dallas Wings.
The Storm, meanwhile, sit just behind the Lynx in the Commissioner’s Cup standings at 2-1. However, they’ve had a rockier overall season with a 5-4 record. Seattle will be looking to bounce back against Minnesota, especially after falling short in their previous meeting on May 27, when the Lynx edged out a 82-77 victory. That loss continued a troubling trend for the Storm, who have now dropped four of their last five matchups against Minnesota.

Our Minnesota Lynx vs Seattle Storm Prediction
Seattle’s defense has held up relatively well, conceding 78.9 points per game, which ranks fourth in the league. However, opponents are shooting 42.7% against them — a figure that ranks just seventh and could be problematic against a Lynx team that capitalizes on efficiency and discipline.
Adding to their challenges, the Storm are still missing Katie Lou Samuelson due to a torn ACL, and their offensive depth remains a concern. If Minnesota can neutralize Skylar Diggins-Smith, Seattle could struggle to generate enough offense to keep pace.
The Lynx will once again be without forward Jessica Shepard, who is currently representing Slovenia in EuroBasket. Nonetheless, with a defense this formidable and momentum clearly on their side, Minnesota appears poised to continue their dominant run. A win today would not only keep their perfect season alive but also solidify their grip on the top spot in the Commissioner’s Cup race. Our prediction for Seattle Storm vs. Minnesota Lynx: Lynx to win.
