WNBA: Where underdogs never win

[Beyond the Bets]

So, maybe it's not 'never.' But in 52 games so far, only 11 underdogs have won. Only twice - both recently - has a dog of more than +200 secured an outright victory in a WNBA game.

Thirty-six of 52 games (69%) have been 'off' the closing line by five points or more, and 20 (39%) have been off by double digits or more.

Does anybody care? I didn't think so.

But figured I'd let you know just in case.

Ride the Lynx until they don't cover imo.

Or just take them on the ML and lay the juice. They'll probably only lose one game, tops. So the odds of you making money are actually pretty good given the size of each bet.

I couldn't force myself to do that if I tried.
