The 2025 Commissioner’s Cup Championship will take center stage when the Minnesota Lynx welcome the Indiana Fever at 8 p.m. ET on Tuesday at the Target Center on Amazon Prime Video.

There will be more than bragging rights on the line when these two teams face off as the only game of the night. The winner of Tuesday’s showdown will earn a $500,000 prize pool.

According to the betting odds at the BetMGM online sportsbook, Minnesota enters the matchup as a 5.5-point favorite over Indiana. The total is listed at 166.5.

Fever vs. Lynx betting odds at BetMGM:

• Spread: Lynx -5.5
• Total: 166.5
• Moneyline: Fever +185/Lynx -225

It’s worth noting that these odds could move depending on Caitlin Clark’s status. She remains uncertain for the game, having been sidelined for the last two contests with a groin injury. This comes after Clark missed five games with a quad injury earlier in the year.

If Clark can play, the Commissioner’s Cup final could be a signature game for the 2025 season. This game has been a WNBA Finals preview the last two years. 

The Lynx earned the Commissioner’s Cup with a 94-89 win over the New York Liberty last year, but ultimately lost the rematch in the WNBA Finals. In 2023, the Liberty secured an 82-63 victory over the Las Vegas Aces before ultimately losing in the WNBA Finals.

Minnesota has certainly looked like a team capable of returning to the WNBA Finals. The Lynx have the best record (14-2) and net rating in the league. Their net rating is 4.2 points better than anyone else.

Napheesa Collier, one of the captains of the All-Star Game along with Clark, has been the clear WNBA MVP odds favorite for much of the year. She’s averaging 24.4 points, 8.4 rebounds, 3.7 assists, and 1.8 steals per contest.

Indiana’s season has been more up-and-down, going 8-8 to begin the season. The Fever have yet to win more than two games in a row this season. They are fourth in the league with a net rating of +5.5.

The Commissioner’s Cup final could help Indiana jump-start its season. It could also be another chance for Minnesota to prove it’s the best team in the league.
