At the onset of the week, the New York Liberty had the best record in the WNBA. The problem with New York is that their WNBA betting success on the hardwood is not being reflected at the payout window. The second-best in the WNBA is the Connecticut Sun. In like manner to the Liberty, the Sun is in the red against the oddsmakers. On the Western Conference, the Minnesota Lynx shares the lead with the Seattle Storm. Meanwhile, the defending WNBA champion Las Vegas Aces are right behind. The WNBA is on Olympic break until August 20.
