Connecticut at Los Angeles

The WNBA season is winding down and it is kind of odd that no team has been eliminated from playoff contention. That includes the LA Sparks at 10-18. The Connecticut Sun sits on top of the league at 22-6 with just four regular-season games remaining. They bring an eight-game winning streak into tonight's action in LA. One of those wins was just 12 days ago at home where they easily dispatched the Sparks by 15. I think that plays into this game as the motivation to dominate is going to be absent, while the Sparks make a last-ditch effort to make the playoffs, and a win tonight is needed for that to happen. I'm not sure they get it but taking 10 points seems like too much here. Make the play on LA.
