The second of two WNBA semifinals gets started today with Connecticut taking on Minnesota. With the way these two teams battled in the regular season, Zak Hanshew believes Game 1 will be another close affair.The Minnesota Lynx and Connecticut Sun swept their respective first-round playoff matchups against the Phoenix Mercury and Indiana Fever, and the Lynx and Sun meet in the semis with a trip to the WNBA Finals on the line.
The road team covered in all three 2024 matchups and in the final two games of the 2023 Sun-Lynx first-round series.The Sun covered and pushed in its first-round series sweep of the Fever, and Connecticut clearly looked like the best team in that series against a red-hot Indiana team. Minnesota had its hands full with Phoenix in its series sweep. The Lynx’s dominant defense was taken to task, surrendering 95 and 88 points, and Minnesota gave up a 23-point lead in a hard-fought Game 1.
Connecticut boasts the WNBA’s top-rated defense, and the Sun will surely do its best to contain the electric Collier in Game 1. Collier averaged a ridiculous 40 points against Phoenix and carried her team to victory. She has scored at least 25 points in three straight and hit the mark twice against the Sun in the regular season. Collier’s point total is set at 23.5, and taking the Over comes with less-than-favorable -124 odds.
