Minnesota Lynx - Washington Mystics Key Points

  1. Minnesota’s Napheesa Collier is OUT for this game
  2. The Lynx are 15-1 SU at home this season
  3. The Mystics are 4-10 SU on the road this season
  4. The Lynx are 1-0 ATS vs the Mystics at home this season

Our Minnesota Lynx vs Washington Mystics Prediction

Minnesota passed its first true test without its leading scorer, Napheesa Collier, by beating the Seattle Storm in their most recent game. Collier will once again be out for this matchup, but the Lynx will be playing a Mystics team that has been inconsistent for most of the season. Further, the Lynx will be playing this game at home, where they are 15-1.

Last time the Mystics played in Minnesota, they lost by 17 points, and that was with Collier in the lineup. Even with Collier out for this game, the Lynx are simply the better team and have a lot more depth. For that reason, our Minnesota Lynx vs Washington Mystics prediction is: Minnesota Lynx -10.
