New York at Connecticut

This is a short road trip for New York, a strong defensive team ranked fourth in the league in points allowed and tops in rebounds. This is the fourth road game in five contests and a quick turnaround after hosting Dallas Tuesday. It's also the start of a three-game road trek. They face a Connecticut team that can't shoot or score, #11 in the WNBA in points scored. Connecticut has dropped two in a row and eight of its last nine, including a 109-106 triple-overtime loss to the Washington Mystics on Tuesday. Connecticut shoots 41.9% from the field as a team (eighth) and 29.3% from long range (ninth). Six of the last seven meetings have gone UNDER the total and this shapes up as a contest with more defense than offense. Play this one to finish UNDER the total.
