SEA vs MIN Dream11 Prediction WNBA Live Fantasy Basketball Dream11 Team, Top Picks and Tips for Seattle Storm vs Minnesota Lynx

SEA vs MIN Dream11: WNBA has been heading towards the Playoffs at an electric rate and there is no doubt that we are in a crucial window where teams fight for any Playoff spot available. Five of the teams have booked their place and one of those teams Seattle Storm will take on the Minnesota Lynx.

The Storm has been a bit wayward lately and although they remain one of the premium teams, they should have done better than a 19 wins and 12 losses record. They come into this game after a close loss against the Mystics, losing 75-78 despite a 23 points performance by Breanna Stewart.

Meanwhile, the Minnesota Lynx has had a tough season although they have won 12 games and lost 19 games, the record is much better than earlier in the season. In their last game, they defeated the Sparks 84:77 as Moriah Jefferson drilled 22 points .

The Lynx last met the Storm way back in early May during their season opener. They lost that game by 20+ points.

Host: Seattle Storm
Visitors: Minnesota Lynx
Match Timing: 4 August, @ 07:30 AM (+05:30 UTC)

WNBA Projections, Stats & Analysis

Storm’s defense is incredible

While the Storm has built an incredible defense both in terms of perimeter and paint but their offense has been off for most parts. The Storm has been struggling to push the pace and has been second worst in that regard. Breanna Stewart has carried the major load while Center Tina Charles has had her moments. Jewell Loyd’s shooting can be off at times while Sue Bird continues to have a major impact. The bench play hasn’t helped the offensive case.

Lynx’s improved play may not be enough

While the Lynx have won nine and lost just six games since the third week of June, which means that they have improved a lot but it has been a tricky terrain as they still need a big push to close in towards the Playoffs. They have received immense contributions from Moriah and Powers while Fowles continues to do her thing inside. However, it seems like this is the end of the road for the Lynx that are in need to win all games, will they be able to do it?
