My Prediction
Minnesota Lynx by 5Allow me to paint a picture. Coming on top at #1 position in the WNBA standings, we have the Minnesota Lynx. Parading an impeccable 9-0 record, their feathers are probably expanding like a peacock in monsoon season. Top performers for the Lynx are the remarkable Napheesa Collier dropping 25.5 points per game, rebounding 8.9 times per game, and Kayla McBride with 17 points per game and 3.4 rebounds. They've got a somewhat lopsided recent matchup history favoring them, with 4 wins and just one loss to the Storm.
On the other side, we have the Seattle Storm, who've probably seen better days. A shaky 5-4 record has them gripping the #6 spot in the WNBA standings. But hey, every cloud has the silver lining, right? The Storm can thank Nneka Ogwumike with 16.1 points and 8.7 rebounds per game and Skylar Diggins, matching her with 17.8 points per game. Their recent run hasn't exactly been jaw-dropping. Although they have two recent victories at hand, they couldn't stand the Lynx last time they met, losing too close for comfort, 77-81.
See, it's like watching a cat (The Lynx) play with a mouse (The Storm)...sort of, ignore the Storm's occasional triumphs. Anyways, as a neutral party who has no vested interests or particular favorites, do take this with a sprinkle of salt. Winning, after all, isn't a one-size-fits-all jumper, right?
