ATLANTA (AP) Jessica Breland scored 19 points, Alex Bentley made a late go-ahead 3-pointer and the short-handed Atlanta Dream beat the Los Angeles Sparks 79-73 on Thursday night.

It was Atlanta's first victory without star Angel McCoughtry, who the team announced just before the game that she would miss the remainder of the season due to torn ligaments in her left knee. She was averaging 16.5 points, including a career-high 39 points at New York earlier this year.

Bentley finished with 13 points and Elizabeth Williams had 10 points and seven rebounds for Atlanta.

Atlanta (20-10) is 2+ games behind first-place Seattle (23-8) and a game ahead of third-place Washington (19-11). The Storm have clinched a top-two seed and will receive a double-bye to the semifinals.

Bentley made a 3-pointer to give Atlanta a 71-68 lead and she came off a high screen to drain a long jumper to make it 75-70. Riquna Williams answered with a 3-pointer to pull Los Angeles closer but Tiffany Hayes secured it at the free-throw line with 4.4. seconds left.

Candace Parker had 20 points and 12 rebounds for her 11th double-double of the season for Los Angeles (18-12). Williams added 18 points off the bench and Chelsea Gray had 13 for the Sparks, who were playing the second-half of a back-to-back after winning in New York on Wednesday night.

MYSTICS 100, STORM 77

WASHINGTON (AP) - Elena Delle Donne scored 30 points, LaToya Sanders had 17 points and 10 rebounds and the Mystics beat the league-leading Storm for their fifth straight victory.

Washington never trailed and led by as many as 27 points.

Despite the loss, Seattle clinched one of the top two seeds in the playoffs when Atlanta beat Los Angeles later Thursday. The Storm have a bye to the semifinals.

Natasha Cloud had 14 points and eight assists for Washington (19-11) and Ariel Atkins added 12 points. The Mystics are a game behind the second-place Atlanta Dream. Delle Donne was 11 of 16 from the field as the Mystics shot 57 percent, including 12 of 26 from 3-point range.

Natasha Howard and Jewell Loyd each scored 15 points for Seattle (23-8), which had its five-game winning streak snapped.

LYNX 89, ACES 73

LAS VEGAS (AP) - Maya Moore scored 34 points, Sylvia Fowles broke her own franchise single-season rebounding record and the Lynx beat the Aces to clinch their eighth straight playoff spot.

Moore was 12-of-19 shooting, with five 3-pointers, for her second straight 30-plus game and Fowles had 10 points and 19 rebounds for her 18th double-double of the season. Fowles topped her rebounding total of 354 from last season.

Tanisha Wright added 16 points off the bench for Minnesota (17-13). Danielle Robinson made her second straight start in place of the resting Lindsay Whalen, but played just 12 minutes after injuring her ankle. Rebekkah Brunson also missed the game.

Las Vegas (12-18) has lost five straight - including a forfeited game at Washington. The Aces are 2+ games back of eighth-place Dallas.

A'ja Wilson scored 18 points, with 10 straight makes at the free-throw line, for the Aces.

Friday’s 6-pack

— Cleveland Indians are 27-8 vs division rivals Royals-Tigers-White Sox; they’re 37-42 vs everyone else.

— Memo to NFL officials: don’t call taunting penalties!!!!

— Browns went 4-0 in preseason LY, then went 0-16 in games that count.

— Why do the Browns’ jerseys say “Cleveland” on them? They look like damn high school jerseys.

— For next four weeks, daytime TV consists on re-runs of NFL preseason games. This is good.

— There was a delay in the White Sox game Wednesday night because a moth flew into the ear of home plate umpire Bruce Dreckman, and it needed to be removed.

Tweet of the Day
“I’ve had some really good teammates. One guy? It would be (Nick) Markakis for me. First of all, I played with him the longest. He always said the right things when they needed to be said. He didn’t say much, but whenever he did, people listened. And he played the game the right way. We’re plumbers, we show up every day for work, good, bad and the ugly and we live with the results each day. And the way he approached this game, and still approaches the game, is something that not just myself, but a lot of people in this clubhouse, have modeled themselves after.”
Adam Jones

Friday’s quiz
Who coached Cleveland Browns last time they made the playoffs?

Thursday’s quiz
Nick Saban went 15-17 in two seasons coaching the Miami Dolphins.

Wednesday’s quiz
Kings County in New York is better known by another name, Brooklyn.

************************

Friday’s List of 13: NFL games with interesting subplots:

Week 1: Falcons @ Eagles: Philly beat Atlanta 15-10 in playoffs LY, went on to win their first Super Bowl title, with their backup QB playing- now Carson Wentz is back under center. Falcons lost Super Bowl two years ago. Matt Ryan is from Philly.

Week 2: Dolphins @ Jets: If I owned the Dolphins, would damn sure want to know how the hell we’re 1-6 in our last seven games against the Jets? Miami lost last three visits to the Swamp, by 38-20/34-13/20-6 scores. Will Sam Darnold be the Jets’ QB by then?

Giants @ Cowboys: Big Blue visited Dallas in Week 1 four of the last five years; they have to wait until Week 2 this year. This matchup must get consistently high TV ratings, but an NFC East squad won the Super Bowl last year, and it wasn’t either one of these teams.

Week 3: Titans @ Jaguars: Jacksonville made playoffs LY for first time in 10 years, but they got swept by the Titans, 37-16/15-10. Jaguars were +10 in turnovers last year, but were -5 vs Tennessee- they scored only two offensive TD’s in 26 drives against the Titans.

Patriots @ Lions: Matt Patricia is the Lions’ new coach; he’s come a long way from his days as a college student at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute (RPI), located in Troy, NY, just over the river from Armadillo World HQ. This matchup vs Brady/Belichick is the NBC Sunday night game.

Week 4: Chiefs @ Broncos: Kansas City is starting Patrick Mahomes at QB; he is basically a rookie- his only start was a 27-24 win here LY. Four of the Chiefs’ first six games this year are on road, at Chargers, Steelers, Broncos, Patriots. Tough start for a young QB.

Week 6: 49ers @ Packers: Same thing for the 49ers; four of their first six games are on the road, at Vikings, Chiefs, Chargers, Packers. Was 49ers’ strong finish LY a sign of future promise, or were they merely passing tired horses? By time this game is over, we may know.

Week 7: Chargers @ Browns: Cleveland is 1-31 the last two years; they beat Chargers 20-17 here in Week 16 of 2016 for the only win, then lost to them 19-10 (+14) in Carson LY. Chargers are on their way to London after this game, for a 6:30am PST game with the Titans in Week 8.

Week 8: Saints @ Vikings: I’m guessing New Orleans has this game circled on their calendar, after their defensive meltdown at the end of last year’s 29-24 playoff loss on this field.

Week 9: Raiders @ 49ers: “I could fly to LA for a haircut faster than I could drive to Santa Clara” Mark Davis is moving his team to Las Vegas because he didn’t want to share this stadium with the 49ers. Well, he has to drive to Santa Clara for this Thursday night game.

Week 12: Six NFC teams are playing on Thanksgiving: Bears-Lions, Redskins-Cowboys and Falcons-Saints. Smart to have divisional games on Thursdays, with less prep time.

Jaguars @ Bills: Last year’s unlikely playoff game: Jaguars 10, Bills 3. Buffalo made playoffs for first time in 19 years, then sent their QB packing. Interesting decision; was it smart? Visiting Buffalo on Thanksgiving weekend means cold weather will probably be a factor.

Week 13: 49ers @ Seahawks: Richard Sherman’s return to Seattle is a Sunday night game.

Vandersloot's 20 points, 15 assists help Sky beat Sun 97-86
August 10, 2018

CHICAGO (AP) Courtney Vandersloot scored 20 points and handed out 15 of Chicago's WNBA record-tying 35 assists to help the Sky beat the Connecticut Sun 97-86 on Friday night.

Chicago (11-19), which tied the record set by the Minnesota Lynx last season, called a timeout with 15.5 seconds remaining and a nine-point lead to draw up a potential record-breaking play. Sun coach Curt Miller was visibly upset could be heard on the sideline calling the timeout ''bush league''. The teams play again on Sunday in Connecticut.

Allie Quigley added 17 points, Stefanie Dolson scored 16 and Diamond DeShields had 12 points, seven rebounds and six assists for the Sky. Rookie Gabby Williams scored 11 points and Kahleah Copper 10.

Quigley hit a 3-pointer to cap a 9-2 opening spurt and the Sky never trailed. Copper converted a 3-point play to cap a 12-4 run that pushed the lead to 13 with three minutes left in the first quarter and back-to-back baskets by Deshields gave the Sky their biggest lead of the game at 61-41 early in the second half.

Shekinna Stricklen hit three 3s in a 57-second span, and Jonquel Jones scored 10 points, during a 24-7 spurt that trimmed Sun's deficit to 72-69 early in the fourth quarter, but Chicago scored 13 of the next 16 points to pull away for good.

Chiney Ogwumike had 18 points to lead Connecticut (17-13), which had its five-game win streak snapped.

Saturday’s 6-pack

— Nick Saban comes from modest means; his family owned a gas station in West Virginia.

— 43 of 82 Lakers games will either be on ABC, TNT, ESPN or NBATV; not the Warriors, the Lakers.

— Redskins’ rookie RB Derrius Guice tore his ACL. Not good.

— In this coming NBA season, Trailblazers will travel the most miles, Cavaliers the least.

— Melania Trump’s parents became naturalized US citizens Thursday; good for them.

— Since 2010, Alabama has had 25 first round NFL Draft picks; Florida/Ohio State are next, with 13 each.

Tweet of the Day
“When it came to helping other sports, Nick (Saban) was unbelievable.”
Bob Starkey, an assistant basketball coach at LSU while Saban was head coach there

Saturday’s quiz
Who was the Cleveland Browns’ QB the last time they played in the playoffs?

Friday’s quiz
Butch Davis coached Cleveland Browns last time they made the playoffs, in 2002.

Thursday’s quiz
Nick Saban went 15-17 in two seasons coaching the Miami Dolphins.

*************************

Saturday’s List of 13: Random stuff with weekend here……

13) Westgate Super Contest is a $1,500 buy-in football handicapping contest; you pick five NFL games a week, and first prize is around $1M- they pay off 30 places, I think, maybe more. Thing is, if you don’t live in Las Vegas, you need a person who will put your picks in for you every week at the Westgate.

There are actually people who charge $240 or so to do this for you; talk about easy freakin’ money. 17 times, you take the person’s five picks, drive to the Westgate SuperBook, and put the picks in. Not a difficult job. Do it for, say 8 people, and thats an easy $1,920 you’re banking.

12) Miami Marlins traded 1B Justin Bour to the Phillies for McKenzie Mlls, who was 2-3, 3.51 in 20 games (16 starts) in the AA Eastern League.

Bour is making $3.4M this year, is arbitration-eligible this winter, so the Marlins cheaped out on this deal- will they ever be good? Bour has 19 homers; does this mean Carlos Santana will play some outfield for the Phillies?

11) On 4th-and-2 from the Giants’ 13-yard line Thursday, Cleveland went for it, midway thru second quarter. You would never do that in the regular season, but it made sense here, since you want to see players in game situations, and you know you can make a 30-yard FG.

10) From Doug Kern: This season, the Colorado Rockies have had two pitchers give up 10+ hits in a game but also strike out 10+ in same game; both of them lost. German Marquez did it Wednesday, and Jon Gray did it May 13.

Last team to have two different pitchers lose such a game in the same season: the 1939 St Louis Browns

9) Kansas State’s football coach, 78-year-old Bill Snyder, agreed to a 5-year contract extension thru the 2022 season. The contract increases Snyder’s pay to $3.45M for this year, which will then increase by $300,000 in both 2019 and 2020.

Snyder has been in a political struggle to determine his successor; his son has been the special teams coach at K-State for a long time. Snyder would obviously like his son to succeed him.

8) San Diego Padres saved more than $750,000 by allowing pitchers Tyson Ross and Jordan Lyles to leave on waiver claims Sunday; they also save $200,000 for every start Ross makes between 20 and 29 (he has 22 now).

7) After finishing 12th at the British Open in Scotland last month, the European Tour paid Tommy Fleetwood $154,500. One small problem; it was the wrong Tommy Fleetwood.

The guy who got the money put in his account mistakenly is a golf pro in Florida.

6) Tampa Bay Rays’ 2B Joey Wendle seems like a decent player; he was 7-17 in his last four games, is hitting .292, so of course on Thursday, he takes a seat? Why?

Does Tampa Bay have so many great players that Wendle has to sit? He is hitting .300 vs lefties, .291 vs righties, so it wasn’t that. Why do teams get run like Little League now, where everyone has to play? Play the best players!!!

5) There was recently a 3-day fantasy football convention in Fort Worth, TX. Wonder how much people paid to get into that, and whether they learned anything worthwhile.

4) How did Daniel Murphy never wind up as a DH? To me he is a lot like Wade Boggs was, a prolific hitter who would be great to pencil in the lineup every day, but you see Murphy reach for a ground ball now and he looks like a guy on his last legs athletically.

When he has a bat in his hands, he is still very dangerous.

3) More baseball stuff:
— Angels put Mike Trout (wrist) on the DL.
— Washington took Jeremy Hellickson out in 6th inning Friday, after he walked bases full with a 2-0 lead; he was also pitching a no-hitter at the time.

2) I wonder every month why ESPN the Magazine still gets delivered to my house; I don’t pay for it, it is (mostly) terrible; I just shake my head when it arrives each month.

This month is (kind of) an exception; there is a very good article about Nick Saban, and 14 stories about him that explain what makes him tick. Enjoyed the article.

1) Mookie Betts hit for the cycle Thursday but Boston lost; of the last 44 players to hit for the cycle, that player’s team went 40-4 in those games.

Tweet of the Day
“They’ve got all these super nerds in the front office that know nothing about baseball but they like to project numbers and project players. … I think it’s killing the game. It’s to the point where just put computers out there. Just put laptops and what have you, just put them out there and let them play. We don’t even need to go out there anymore. It’s a joke.”
Former major leaguer Jayson Werth

Sunday’s Den: Notes, trends on AFC teams

Baltimore— Missed playoffs last three years, four of five years since Ray Lewis retired. Ravens are 6-2-1 vs spread on natural grass last two years. Since ’08, Ravens are 9-6-1 as road favorites in divisional games, 6-12 in non-divisional tilts.

Buffalo— Bills made playoffs LY for first time in 18 years, but now QB Tyrod Taylor plays for the Browns, and Buffalo’s three QB’s have a combined five NFL starts. When does rookie QB Josh Allen get the nod? Last three years, Bills are 6-2-1 as non-divisional home favorites.

Cincinnati— Marvin Lewis is 125-112-3 with Bengals, but 0-7 in playoff games. Over last decade, Bengals are 24-13-3 vs spread when playing an NFC opponent- surprisingly, they won seven of their last nine games with Baltimore. Under is 21-11 in their road games last four years.

For the record, Lewis may be 0-7 in playoff games, but the Bengals’ three head coaches before him were a combined 52-124 over 11 seasons.

Cleveland— Browns are 1-31 the last two years; since coming back to NFL in 1999, they’re 1-18 in season openers. Cleveland was a ridiculously-bad -28 in turnovers LY; having Taylor at QB will improve that a great deal. Last eight years, Browns are 21-39-3 vs spread at home.

Denver— Keenum will be Broncos’ 7th different #1 QB the last 12 years; they’re 5-2 as home underdogs last three years, vs 5-11 vs spread on the road. Denver was 1-7 on road LY, with only win at Indianapolis in December; previous six years, they were 31-17 on foreign soil

Houston— Texans scored 34-33-38 points in last three games rookie QB Watson played, but after his injury, Houston scored 16 or fewer points in 8 of their last 9 games. Last nine years, Texans are 6-11 as home underdogs; under O’Brien, they’re 9-3-1 when favored by 3 or fewer points.

Indianapolis— Andrew Luck returns at QB after missing LY; they change coaches after missing playoffs last 3 years (8-8/8-8/4-12). Last two years, Colts are 2-7-1 vs spread in games coming off a win, 13-8 in games coming off a loss. Frank Reich has never been a head coach before; he was the Eagles’ OC the last two years.

Jacksonville— Jaguars were +10 in turnovers LY as they made playoffs for first time in 10 years; can they force 33 takeaways again? Over is 15-8 in Jaguar home games the last three years. Last five years, Jax is 3-17 vs spread when playing an NFC team; they open with Giants this year.

Kansas City— Last three years, Chiefs were +14/+16/+15 in turnovers, but Alex Smith is gone, Patrick Mahomes (1 career start) is the starter now and KC’s turnover ratio figures to regress some this year. Chiefs were -3 in turnovers in 2014, the only time in Andy Reid’s five years in KC the Chiefs failed to make the playoffs.

LA Chargers— Bolts started out 0-4 LY, with three losses by 2 or 3 points; their kickers were terrible in September, and it cost them a playoff spot. Chargers made playoffs once in last eight years; they’re 9-13 as home favorites the last four years.

Chargers play in Cleveland in Week 6, then play in London against the Titans in Week 7, before their bye week. In Week 9, they play in Seattle and the next week they visit Oakland- tough five-week stretch.

Miami— Dolphins haven’t been in playoffs since 2008; their last playoff win was in 2000. Jay Cutler was Miami’s QB LY; now he’s on a reality show with his actress wife and Ryan Tannehill is back at QB. Miami is 5-2-1 as home dogs under coach Gase; they’re 5-15 vs spread in their last 20 games on artificial turf.

New England— Last time Patriots went out in their first playoff game was 2010; they’re 14-6-3 as home favorites the last three years, but NE is replacing DC Matt Patricia this year- he is the Lions’ new coach. Over last decade, Patriots are 24-10 vs spread when they’re coming off a loss. Last five years, NE is 3-9 vs spread as a road favorite in divisional games.

NJ Jets— Jets haven’t made playoffs since 2010; they were outscored 94-32 in losing their last four games LY. Will Sam Darnold start? Will they keep three QB’s? Two of their first three games this year are in primetime. Last four years, Jets are -29 in turnovers; they’re 15-8-1 vs spread at home the last three years.

Oakland— Jon Gruden already got rid of his punter and his kicker; special teams coach Bisaccia will have his hands full. Oakland hasn’t won a playoff game (0-1) since Gruden beat them in Super Bowl with Bucs 16 years ago. Last five years, Raiders are 13-6-1 vs spread as a non-divisional road underdog.

Pittsburgh— Steelers have had only three head coaches since 1969; they made playoffs last four years, but haven’t won Super Bowl since 2008. Last three years, under is 18-4-1 in Pitt’s away games. Since 2010, Steelers are 27-15-1 vs spread when coming off a loss.

Tennessee— Titans made playoffs for first time in nine years, then fired the coach; they’re 7-3-2 vs spread as home favorites the last two years, but 5-10-1 vs spread on road. Over last decade, Tennessee is 8-21-1 vs spread in AFC South road games.

Developing young QB Marcus Mariota will be QB coach Pat O’Hara, whose resume is fascinating— he played at USC, played and coached in the Arena League, was the #3 QB for the Miami Sharks in the movie Any Given Sunday, backing up Dennis Quaid and Jamie Foxx.

Sunday's WNBA Best Bets
Joe Williams

For the remainder of the WNBA regular season through the playoffs, we'll take a look at the best Sunday bets.

The schedule for Sunday is chock full of action, and there are plenty of playoff ramifications with these games as well. Let's get started.

The New York Liberty (7-22) aren't going anywhere, but they can deal the Atlanta Dream (21-10) a big loss in early-afternoon action. The Dream continue to keep the lurking Washington Mystics (18-11) at arm's length, but Atlanta needs to keep their foot on the gas, especially against a poor side. The Dream looked sharp in the first half of their game on Saturday at home against the Dallas Wings (14-16), and rolled to a 10-point win and cover. Now they face the daunting task of a road game the following day. That's tough for any athlete. Being away from home hasn't been tough for the Dream lately, though, as they're an impressive 6-0 ATS in their past six on the road, and 7-1 ATS in their past eight games against Eastern Conference foes. However, keep in mind that they are 3-11 ATS in the past 14 outings when working on zero days of rest.
The Lib have been poor all around, going 2-6 ATS across their past eight outings overall, while cashing in just two of their past nine contests at home. New York is also 0-4 ATS in the past four against Eastern Conference teams, so they're not expected to provide much resistance against the championship-hopeful Dream. New York does have the rest factor on their side, though, and they're 4-1 ATS in their past five when working on three or more days of rest. Atlanta is also just 2-5 ATS in the past seven meetings with New York, and 2-7 ATS in the past nine trips up north to the city. The 'under' has cashed in 12 of the past 16 meetings in New York, too.

*** BEST BET ALERT: The quick turnaround aside, the Dream are a much better club than the Liberty, who are just playing out the string. Atlanta might start out a bit sluggish, but talent will take over and Atlanta should easily cover by more than two buckets. Take Atlanta (-4).

The Chicago Sky (11-19) and Connecticut Sun (17-13) battle with plenty of playoff implications, too, especially for the Sun. The Sky are mathematically still alive, but can use no further slip-ups down the stretch. Really, they're done, and it's because they can't get over the hump against the good teams. They are what they are, basically - a subpar side. Chicago is just 8-18 ATS in their past 26 against teams with a winning overall record, and they're 1-4 ATS in their past five tries against Eastern Conference foes. In addition, they haven't been able to piece together any success lately, going 1-4 ATS in their past five outings following a straight-up win.

For Connecticut, it's the opposite. They're 5-1 ATS in their past six overall, and 24-11 ATS in their past 35 against teams with an overall losing record. The trends for the total in this one are a bit confusing. The 'over' has hit in six of the past seven meetings overall, but the 'under' is 7-3 in the past 10 in the Nutmeg State (That's really Connecticut's nickname, by the way). The over is 6-2 in Chicago's past eight against the East, and the over is 4-0 in Connecticut's past four overall. However, the under is 7-3 in the Sun's past 10 after a straight-up loss, and 4-1 in their past five working on just one day of rest.

The Wings have the unenviable task of playing in Atlanta and Washington on back-to-back days. It's a difficult assignment for a team that hasn't been playing very well lately to begin with. The skidding Wings enter the contest 0-7 ATS across their past seven overall, and they're 0-7 ATS in the past seven tries against Eastern Conference clubs, too, after their loss to the Dream on Saturday. In addition, they are just 1-4 ATS in their past five when working on no rest. That doesn't bode well for them to snap out of their funk in D.C.

For the Mystics, they glide in having covered four in a row, and they're 4-1-1 ATS in their past six against teams from the Western Conference. They are also 5-1 ATS in the past six meetings with teams bring in a subpar overall record. Total bettors might want to hammer the 'under' in this one. The under is 4-1 in Dallas' past five against Eastern Conference clubs, and 5-0 in their past five against teams with an overall winning record. The under is 20-8 in Washington's past 28 against teams with a losing overall record, and the total has went under in each of the past five meetings in this series, too.

In the evening action, the Phoenix Mercury (17-14) hosts the Los Angeles Sparks (18-12) in what is normally a marquee contest. It is still an important matchup, and both clubs are expected to make the playoffs, but it's an important game for seeding. These are two teams that have had their ups and downs this season, and aren't playing very good basketball recently. Neither has been very good against the number lately, either.

Los Angeles enters just 1-4 ATS over their past five games, and they're 2-8 ATS in the past 10 against teams with an overall winning record. That makes the Merc a slam-dunk play, right? Well, Phoenix is just 2-5 ATS in the past seven against Western Conference clubs, 1-4 ATS in the past five against winning sides and 1-5 ATS in the past six home outings. In this series, L.A. has dominated against the number in recent times, going 7-2 ATS in the past nine overall, and 5-2-1 ATS in their past eight trips to the Valley of the Sun.

Total players might be the biggest beneficiaries in this one. The 'under' is the dominant trend, going 8-3 in the past 11 meetings in Phoenix, and 5-2 in the past seven meetings overall. In addition, the under is 43-20 in L.A.'s past 63 overall, and 24-11 in their past 35 inside the Western Conference. For the Merc, the under is 12-4 in their past 16 against winnings teams, and an impressive 7-3 in their past 10 at home.

*** BEST BET ALERT - PART II: The 'under' is the play in the L.A.-Phoenix battle, with the total hovering around 160. The under hit in L.A. back on May 27 between these sides with a total of 158.5, and the under cashed on Aug. 5 with a total of 161. Three's a charm here. Bang the 'under' (160) on Sunday.

The Seattle Storm (23-8) sit atop the overall WNBA standings, but they have a tough one against a wounded, but still dangerous Minnesota Lynx (17-13) side. If you go by the overall team trends, Seattle should dominate. They're 10-1 ATS in their past 11 following a non-cover, and 4-0 ATS in the past four on two days of rest. They're also 8-2 ATS in their past 10 on the road, and 12-3-1 ATS in their past 16 overall, while going 4-1 ATS in the past five against Western Conference foes. On the flip side, Minny is just 1-4 ATS in the past five at home, and 1-4 ATS in their past five against winning sides, too.

However, Minnesota has been a house of horrors for Seattle over the years, as the Storm is just 6-15 ATS in their past 21 trips to the Twin Cities. The total trends are opposites, too, as the over is 4-0 in Seattle's past four on the road, and 4-1 in their past five overall. The under dominates for the Lynx, going 13-3 in their past 16, and 4-1 in their past five at home. However, the over is 4-1 in their past five games against teams with a record of .500 or better.

BEST BETS RECORD - LAST WEEK: 0-0 (-10)
BEST BETS RECORD - SEASON: 1-1 (-10)
