Bounce back spot alert!
The Liberty were stunned 90-81 by the Chicago Sky on Thursday in a major upset. They were favored by, at one point, 16 points.
The Minnesota Lynx are off to a good start this year, though — tiny sample size.
The Libs have covered three first half spreads this year.
Also, the team responds — they lost two straight just once last season, and it was in the WNBA Finals.
Of their eight losses last year, they led at halftime by double figures in the following game five times — the last was the regular season ender, so the following game was in the playoffs, so you could say five of seven. And one other instance was a nine-point lead.
Pick: Liberty 1H spread (-4)
