**Lynx Look to Continue Dominance Over Sparks, Collier’s Status Uncertain**

Minneapolis, MN – The Minnesota Lynx (11-1) are poised to face the Los Angeles Sparks for the third time this season, hoping to extend their winning streak and maintain their dominant record. However, the Lynx’s star forward, Napheesa Collier, is a game-time decision due to a back injury sustained in their recent victory over the Las Vegas Aces.

The Sparks (4-8) enter the game seeking to break their losing streak against the Lynx, who have defeated them handily in both previous matchups. Los Angeles receives a boost with the return of veteran guard Kelsey Plum. Plum had 18 and 20 points on subpar shooting performances, which could give the Lynx a run for their money.

Despite Collier’s potential absence, the Lynx boast impressive depth, featuring Kayla McBride, Courtney Williams, and Diamond Miller. Analysts predict the Lynx’s depth will be the key factor in their success, even if Collier is sidelined or limited.

**Analyst Prediction:** The Minnesota Lynx are favored to win by 9.5 points. Analysts also suggest betting on Kelsey Plum to score Over 18 points, and for a total score over 164.5.

The game is scheduled for Saturday, June 21st.

**Injury Report:**

* **Los Angeles Sparks:** Cameron Brink (Out), Rae Burrell (Out)
* **Minnesota Lynx:** Napheesa Collier (Game-time decision)
