WNBA Best Bets:
Well, last night did not go according to script for us. The Minnesota Lynx came out red hot against the Aces and killed both our Aces and Under bets. Conversely, the Mercury and Dream decided to play a Big Ten football game instead of the shootout that was expected in Atlanta. Thursday only has one game on the slate before a monstrous Friday slate, and I will have you covered with projections for them all.

Here are Thursday’s projections for the Liberty and Wings:
New York Liberty vs. Dallas Wings
Sabrina Ionescu missed the previous iteration of this matchup this week due to a neck injury and is questionable for the rematch on Thursday. Meanwhile, the Wings have gotten star Satou Sabally back in the lineup, and she has returned emphatically, scoring in bunches since her return. However, New York is a 13-point favorite with a total of 173.5. The T Shoe Index is calling for the Liberty -18 with a total of 175. I have Sabrina worth about 3 points to the spread, so the line move towards Dallas doesn’t make that much sense. I would’ve loved this Over at 171, but as it stands, I think it’s just a lean. I don’t want to lay a huge number when these teams just played a couple of days ago. It’s going to be a stay away for me.
