2024 WNBA Championship odds: Liberty favored to win Game 5

The WNBA postseason is down to two teams and a winner-takes-all Game 5.

The Liberty were the best team in the regular season and took care of business in the playoff semifinals, defeating the Aces in four games. 

The Lynx won their semifinal matchup over the Sun in five games, advancing to meet New York in the championship series. 

The two squads faced off three times in the regular season, with Minnesota winning twice. 

Still, New York entered the best-of-five series as the favorite at -275. But things were flipped on their head in Game 1 when the Lynx won an overtime thriller on the Liberty's home floor.

In Game 2, the Lynx had a chance to take a two-game lead, as they trailed 68-66 with 3:40 to go in the fourth quarter.

However, Minnesota did not score again, and the Liberty went on to win 80-66.

Then, in Game 3, Sabrina Ionescu hit a three-pointer from the logo as time ran out that helped lift New York to victory and to a 2-1 series lead.

On Friday, in Game 4, it was a back and forth affair through the fourth quarter, as neither team led by more than five, and it was tied at 80 with two seconds to go, before an Ionescu shooting foul sent Bridget Carleton to the line. 

Carleton made both and Ionescu's last-second, three-point heave missed, giving Minnesota a 82-80 win, forcing a Game 5 on Sunday.
