If the Minnesota Lynx win, the market will resolve to "Minnesota Lynx". If the game is postponed, this market will remain open until the game has been completed. If the game is canceled entirely, with no make-up game, this market will resolve 50-50. The result will be determined based on the final score including any overtime periods.
Minnesota Lynx (31-7) host the Golden State Valkyries (25-11) at Target Center with the top seed and strong playoff positioning on the line. The Lynx enter on a six-game win streak and maintain a nine-game all-time series advantage, including recent victories of 81-75 and 77-66. Minnesota’s defense and balanced attack led by Napheesa Collier and Kayla McBride have consistently limited the Valkyries, though Courtney Williams’ foot injury and potential availability questions for other contributors create minor rotation uncertainty. Golden State, which has dropped its last two contests, relies on perimeter shooting and depth but has yet to solve Minnesota’s home form or physical style in any prior matchup this season.
