Lynx vs. Aces Prediction, Spread, Over/Under – Saturday, August 15

If it wasn’t for an ankle injury that sidelined Minnesota star F Napheesa Collier in a playoff series loss to Phoenix, the Lynx may have met the Aces for the WNBA title in 2025.

Collier returned to the lineup on July 22, and the Lynx are 7-1 in her eight games. The big story revolving around Minnesota is the breakout rookie campaign for second overall pick G Olivia Miles, who leads the team in scoring at 19.8 PPG.

Since losing consecutive games to New York and Connecticut to start July, the Lynx have dropped one outing in a shocking 89-82 setback to a short-handed Los Angeles squad. However, that was the only loss during a four-game homestand in which Minnesota defeated Indiana, Las Vegas, and Dallas.

The home team has captured each of the first two head-to-head matchups, starting with Las Vegas holding off Minnesota, 100-97, on June 13. The Lynx picked up revenge last Saturday at Target Center, 98-87, highlighted by hitting 15 of 29 3-point attempts (51.7%).
