Premium Pick

Connecticut will try to get off to a better start than it did in Game 3. Also don't expect the Mystics to hit 16 three-pointers as they did on Sunday. Elena Delle Donne is expected to play although she won't be 100 percent while suffering with a back injury. The Sun lost only twice at home in the regular season and it will be more focused defensively in this must-win game. Connecticut shot only 25 percent from three-point range in Game 3 while Shekinna Stricklen and Jasmine Thomas led the Sun with 16 points apiece and Bria Holmes added 15. Delle Donne was held to 13 points and Kristi Tolliver led Washington with 20 points. The Mystics are 0-5 over their last five games when following a win and the Sun has covered five of its last seven home contests. Look for Connecticut to clamp down defensively and the Mystics' shooting to cool off. Play the Sun and the UNDER.
