New York Liberty at Seattle Storm (-7, 153)
The New York Liberty no longer look like the team that struggled to crack the win column back in June, starting the WNBA season on a 0-4 slide. Over their last five games, the Liberty have been competitive for the most part, fighting for a 3-2 SU (1-4 ATS) record in that span.
Offense has been New York’s weapon of choice, averaging 81.4 points per game in that span and posting one of the fastest paces in the league at 98.7. However, it takes the Liberty at least 10 minutes to get warmed up, with the team scoring only 18.2 points in the first quarter during that five-game stretch.
New York has an early tipoff in Seattle Wednesday, where the Storm are very strong on their home court. Seattle is 5-1 SU (3-2-1 ATS) as a host this season and looks to rebound from its first defeat in front of the home fans, falling 69-67 to Phoenix on Sunday.
With so many star players out of the lineup, the Storm have clamped down on defense. They’re the top-ranked defense in the WNBA and have been very stingy in the first frame, allowing an average of only 18.5 first-quarter points inside Alaska Airlines Arena. They’ve taken on faster-paced teams, like Las Vegas and Los Angeles, and slowed the tempo to a grinding halt.
Offensively, as mentioned above, Seattle is missing many key scorers from last year’s championship team. That’s left the Storm to post only 73.6 points per game – just 19 of those in the opening 10 minutes. WNBA bettors should expect a slow start to this afternoon outing and get things over with in the first quarter.
PREDICTION: Under first-quarter 38
Tuesday’s picks: 1-1
