Sky vs. Lynx Prediction
Take Minnesota and lay the points. The Sky are down Angel Reese, who is out for the season due to an injury. Even with her, I don’t know how much I would have liked Chicago tonight. The Lynx are going to take the Sky to the woodshed tonight. The Sky actually kept things tight with the Lynx the two times the teams met this season but things won’t go Chicago’s way tonight in Minnesota. This will get ugly.
