Thursday's Best WNBA Bet
Seattle Storm at Indiana Fever (-2.5, 145.5)
The Indiana Fever have been nearly untouchable inside Conseco Fieldhouse, going 4-1 at home season. That home mark gets put to the test when the WNBA’s top team, the Seattle Storm, visit Thursday night.
Indiana added to its solid record at home with a 77-67 win over the Connecticut Sun last Sunday, covering as a 5.5-point favorite. The Fever have covered in three of their five home games this year and boast an even 5-5 record against the spread.
"I think it was a big win in the sense that it was Connecticut , who we're chasing and who is up there with Atlanta," forward Tammy Sutton-Brown told The Examiner about Sunday’s win. "We need to take care of our home court."
Defense has been the name of the game in Conseco for Indiana. They’ve allowed opponents only 66 points per home contest this season and tops in the WNBA in points against (69.8) and opposing field goal percentage (39.9 percent).
"We're an energy defensive team," coach Lin Dunn told reporters last week.
Seattle has rolled to five straight wins since losing on the road to the Chicago Sky at the end of May. The Storm have a profitable 6-3-1 ATS record but have gone just 2-1-1 ATS on the road.
These two teams split their meetings last season, with the Fever taking a 73-66 win at home while covering as 2.5-point favorites.
