Chicago at Connecticut

The Connecticut Sun has perhaps been the most disappointing team in the WNBA this season. They simply have too much talent to be 3-8 on the season. They now realize that time is running out, so this becomes a huge game for them. They do have a great PG in Kara Lawson and a strong inside presence in Tina Charles, which gives them favorable matchup against Sylvia Fowles, and rookie sensation Elena Delle Donne. They will also be out to redeem an 11-point loss to Chicago early in the season. Play Connecticut. Defense has not been the problem as the Sun have allowed 78 points or less in eight of their last nine, and I expect them to turn it up a notch in a pivotal game that has a lot to say about the rest of their season. Chicago has been defensive off of one of day rest where they are 5-0-1 to the UNDER in their last six. Combined, these clubs are 14-4 to the UNDER off an ATS loss. There is a lot on the line here for Connecticut, and they will bring the defense at home tonight. Go with Connecticut and take the UNDER.
