**Lynx Poised for Rebound Against Valkyries After Commissioner’s Cup Setback**

**Minneapolis, MN** – Despite a recent loss to the Indiana Fever in the Commissioner’s Cup, the Minnesota Lynx are predicted to come back strong against the Golden State Valkyries in their regular-season matchup tonight. The Lynx, currently undefeated at home, are favored to win by a significant margin (-9.5 at FanDuel).

Analyst Tyree believes the Lynx are in a prime position to leverage their home-court advantage and strong record against the spread. He highlighted the performance of Napheesa Collier, anticipating another big scoring night from the league’s leading scorer (Over 20.5 points). Kayla McBride is also expected to contribute heavily with her three-point shooting (Over 2.5 threes).

While the Valkyries lead the Western Conference, their road record against the spread is inconsistent. The Lynx secured an 11-point road victory against them earlier in June, and are expected to repeat this result at home.

The game is scheduled for 8:00 p.m. ET at Target Center in Minneapolis, airing on KMAX 31 and FDSN North. Karlie Samuelson will be out due to injury.
