The Matchup: The New York Liberty travel to take on the Seattle Storm in a potentially exciting WNBA matchup.

The Lines: The Liberty are favored by 2.5 points on the road, with the game total set at 164.5.

Liberty Outlook: The Liberty boast a potent offense, with statistics showing they are ranked 1st in the WNBA in points per game. Recent results suggest they shoot the ball well from everywhere, especially at the free throw line where they rank among the league’s best. The Liberty’s offense will be a challenge for the Storm to contain.

Storm Outlook: The Seattle Storm will need to rely on their defense and potentially exploit any weaknesses in the Liberty’s game. For the Storm to win, they’ll need to control the pace of the game and potentially find ways to generate easy points in transition.

Prediction: This game should be a close, high-scoring affair. The Liberty’s offensive firepower makes them the slight favorites, and the Storm will be highly motivated to defend their home court. The total looks a bit high, as playoff intensity will be on full display, so look for the UNDER 164.5 to hit. I predict the Liberty to win by a narrow margin but NOT cover the spread. This will be a good game.

Score Prediction: Liberty 82 – Storm 81
