Matchup Storylines & Trends
Minnesota approaches this game with reinvigorated momentum, riding a four-game win streak that includes commanding victories over Phoenix, Chicago, and Las Vegas. Napheesa Collier leads the charge, averaging over 23 points and nearly 8 rebounds per game—and was recently named Western Conference Player of the Week. Her leadership anchors a team operating with efficiency on both ends of the court.
The Dream, meanwhile, continue to overachieve with a gritty, high-tempo style. Allisha Gray continues to lead their offense averaging nearly 19 points per game, and Jordin Canada, fresh off reaching 2,000 career points, orchestrates with consistent playmaking and 5.4 assists per contest. Still, Atlanta must contend without Rhyne Howard, who is out for the month, limiting scoring depth on the wing.
In their first meeting on June 27, Minnesota defeated Atlanta 96–92 in overtime despite a balanced Dream attack with six players in double figures. That result highlighted Atlanta’s competitiveness but also Minnesota’s ability to deliver in clutch moments.
Dream vs. Lynx Prediction
This is Minnesota’s stage. With Collier at the center, they’ve built both momentum and confidence to dominate at home. The Dream, led by Gray and Canada, complement each other well but lack the supporting cast to sustain over 40 minutes. Expect another strong home showing: Lynx to win and cover around –8.5, with Collier over 20.5 points and the Over ~159 offering sharp value.
That said, the best bet? Minnesota.
