ASA WNBA play UNDER 162.5 Minnesota Lynx at Connecticut Sun, 7 PM ET - It’s early in the season but the numbers tell us the Lynx and Sun can play some defense. Minnesota is 1st in the league in Defensive Net Rating at 84, the Sun are 5th at 96.3. Minnesota held the Storm to 70-points in the season opener then held them to 78-points in regulation in Game 2. Connecticut has allowed 71, 77 and 84 points in three games this season. Those three games were against two of the worst defensive teams in the WNBA, Indiana and Washington. Minnesota has higher pace numbers this season, but they were the 9th slowest a year ago and we expect a regression towards their 95.84 possessions per game in 2023. Connecticut prefers to play slower too as they ranked 10th slowest last season at 95.14 possessions per game. The Sun clearly prefer to play half court basketball at a slower tempo as they currently rank last in the league in possessions per game. Last season these two teams met 7 times including the playoffs and the oddsmakers posted a total higher of 162 just one time. Four of those seven meetings resulted in less than 162 total points. The bet here is UNDER!
