Who will WIN this matchup?
Minnesota Lynx
Seattle Storm
Current odds:
Minnesota Lynx: (+320)
Seattle Storm: (-400)
• The line for this game is Seattle by 9 points.
• More “full strength” than “new look” or “revamped,” the Seattle Storm look to build on their season-opening victory Tuesday when they face the Minnesota Lynx. Seattle’s title defense last year could be labeled disjointed at best due to the absences of injured starters Breanna Stewart and Sue Bird. Coach Dan Hughes also missed parts of the season due to health issues, and he is not with the team in Orlando this year due to an elevated health risk as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic.
• Stewart and Bird, however, are back and both made an impact Saturday when the Storm defeated the New York Liberty 87-71 and spoiled the debut of No. 1 overall pick Sabrina Ionescu. Stewart had 18 points, eight rebounds, and four steals while Bird chipped in 11 points and five assists while going 3 of 5 from 3-point range.
• Jewell Loyd added 14 points and Jordin Canada added 10 off the bench for Seattle, which limited New York to 34.8 percent shooting.
• Minnesota opened its season by rallying past the Connecticut Sun for a 77-69 victory Sunday, erasing an 11-point deficit and closing the game on a 15-6 burst over the final 4:21. Naphessa Collier scored seven of her 11 points in that late stretch, including a 3-pointer that started the decisive spurt.
• Both Collier and coach Cheryl Reeve lauded Fowles for vocally challenging her teammates, which also contributed to Minnesota outscoring the 2019 WNBA runner-up 27-12 in the fourth quarter.
• Seattle ousted Minnesota in the first round of the playoffs last year, recording an 84-74 win as Canada scored a career-best 26 points. The Storm also won the final three of the four regular-season matchups between the teams in 2019.
