Skylar Diggins-Smith is coming off a two-year layoff and is playing her first ever game for the Seattle Storm. The Minnesota Lynx are poised to take advantage of this situation, as our WNBA betting picks explain.Seattle Storm guard Skylar Diggins-Smith will play her first regular season WNBA game in two seasons when she and her new-look Storm teammates meet the Minnesota Lynx in both clubs' season opener.
The 33-year-old former Phoenix Mercury standout has been more of a facilitator during Seattle’s two preseason tilts; she played 20 minutes in each clash and scored 21 total points. Her shot isn’t falling so she’s adopted the playmaker's role, and that’s what I believe her primary role will be tonight.
Seattle doesn’t know who they are yet; they’ve made great offseason moves but lack experience playing together. That rebuilt offense meets a bolstered Lynx interior defense that will cause all sorts of trouble. This, along with the one-two punch of Collier and McBride, will allow them to cover the spread and keep this tilt under 164.5 points. Minnesota opened on April 17 as +11.5 underdogs. They are now trading from +7.5 to +8.0 with odds ranging from -110 to -115.
