Check the Lynx vs. Wings prediction for the WNBA matchup on May 21, 2025. See odds, betting picks, injury news, player props, and a same-game parlay. The Minnesota Lynx (2-0) are rolling into Wednesday’s showdown against the Dallas Wings (0-2) with momentum, depth, and dominance on their side. This Western Conference clash tips off at 8:00 p.m. ET at the Target Center and airs live on WNBA League Pass.
Minnesota, led by MVP candidate Napheesa Collier, looks every bit like the team to beat. Dallas, on the other hand, has shown flashes with rookie sensation Paige Bueckers and two-way dynamo DiJonai Carrington, but hasn’t been able to string together a full 40 minutes. With Kayla McBride ruled out again for the Lynx, there’s still intrigue—but not much optimism for an upset.

🔥 Game Preview
💪 Minnesota’s Dominant Start
The Lynx are off to a 2-0 start, and it’s not just because of Napheesa Collier’s 28.0 PPG—it’s also their offensive pace and defensive disruption. Despite missing Kayla McBride, Minnesota has scored 94 points per game, thanks to Courtney Williams’ shot creation and Alanna Smith’s paint presence.
Minnesota ranked 2nd in defensive rating last season and has continued that trend early. Their gritty, bruising defense wears down opponents—and the rookie-heavy Wings might not be ready.
🧪 Dallas Still Searching for Chemistry
The Wings have lost their first two games of the season and are still figuring things out. Paige Bueckers has the talent, but it’s a harsh adjustment to the WNBA’s physicality. And with Arike Ogunbowale in a shooting slump, scoring efficiency is scarce.
Carrington’s defense has been a bright spot, but Dallas has no consistent interior presence to contend with Collier—and that’s going to be a problem. Minnesota may control this one from start to finish.

🧠 ClutchBuzz Lynx vs. Wings Prediction
This feels like a game Minnesota controls wire-to-wire. Bueckers will flash potential, but the Wings simply don’t have the defense or rebounding to hang with Minnesota. Expect Phee to dominate the paint, Williams to hit timely buckets, and the Lynx to cover comfortably.
🎯 Final Score Prediction: Lynx 91, Wings 74
🔒 ATS Pick: Lynx -11.5
💣 O/U Pick: Over 168.5
📉 Moneyline Lean: Lynx ML (-617)
The Wings are building toward something, but this isn’t the night they arrive. Minnesota is physical, experienced, and built to expose youth and inexperience. Expect a statement game from Phee, and another double-digit win for the Lynx.
