Dream vs Lynx Prediction: Atlanta to crush Minnesota
Dream vs Lynx Prediction:: The Atlanta Dream will start as favorites to win their upcoming game against the Minnesota Lynx as per the latest predictions.
With each game, the margin of error is becoming less for the Atlanta Dream. They may lose their position in the top 8 if they fail to give consistent performance in the upcoming fixtures. On Thursday, it is a good chance for the Dream to get the winning momentum back when they host the Minnesota Lynx for the next game. Atlanta is coming off a disappointing defeat to the Storm in the last matchup. Rhyne Howard was the only shining star who scored 23 points for her team with 6 rebounds. The Dream will need all players to step up to remain strong in the playoff contention.
The Minnesota Lynx will look to avoid their fourth straight loss when they meet the Dream at the Gateway Center on Thursday. It has been a very frustrating season for the Lynx so far. They fought hard against the Sun in the last fixture but fell short of 7 points in the end. The top scorer was Aerial Powers with 17 points. Nikolina Milic also gave a decent contribution of 14 points with 4 rebounds. With almost no playoff hopes, Minnesota will now look to upset the plans of some other teams.
