MIN vs CHI Dream11 Prediction WNBA Live Minnesota Lynx vs Chicago Sky

MIN vs CHI Dream11: WNBA is full of surprises and we have already seen some riveting battles already. In the WNBA, things are different than the NBA, there is no Conference system and the top eight teams qualify for the Playoffs out of the total 12 teams. The team play is incredible in the league while the defense is also top-notch as the size difference is immense many times. Anyway, more about that later, in this game, the Minnesota Lynx will host the Chicago Sky.
The Lynx have lost their first three games and in the last game, the Fever defeated the Lynx 82:76 despite a 26 points night by Sylvia Fowles. On the other hand, the Sky completed a thorough beatdown of the Liberty, beating them 83:50 as Dana Evans struck home 15 points to start a great start to the season. Will the Lynx be able to get at least their first win of the season?

NBA Projections, Stats & Analysis

Lynx lack offensive consistency, Sky looks deep

The Lynx has been below-par on the offensive end so far and without Kayla McBride in the scene, the Guard position has looked heavily compromised. Sylvia, who is in her last season, has been inserting 20+ points while also grabbing big-time rebounds. Jessica Shephard has shown promise as an all-around player. One of the major reasons why the Lynx hasn’t been successful is that Napheesa Collier hasn’t been around and without her, both the offensive and defensive balance both have been hit.
The Sky has built a deep team and even without Copper and Quigley, they look solid. It is motly due to the presence of Dana Evans, who has lifted her in the second season of her WNBA career. Messeman and Parker both are all-around Forwards whereas Courtney Vandersloot is an incredible playmaker. Azure Stevens has done well whereas Rebekah Gardner also showed flashes of brilliance in the last game.
