The Connecticut Sun have had a lot of good seasons in the WNBA, but this is a team that traded their best player in Tina Charles to tonight's opponent, and have been buried in the bottom of the WNBA standings since. The Sun had the worst record in the WNBA a year ago, and sit in a very similar situation this season. They have struggled with their identity. They started the season with a slower tempo, and that saw them allow 80 points or more in just two of their first 17 games, not including OT. They have since allowed 80 or more in 7 of their last 13. It reflects a faster pace, and also a lack of will with the losses accumulating. The Liberty have played five of their last six on two days rest to the OVER, while the Sun are 5-1 to the OVER in their last six on the road. Take the OVER in this one.
