Washington at Connecticut

The Washington Mystics have far exceeded expectations off a five-win season a year ago, while the Connecticut Sun have limped their way to a 7-22 mark. Despite a losing record with just five games to play, the Washington Mystics have done enough to be playoffs bound in the weak WNBA East. The Mystics have won just six times all season on the road. Washington has had two losing streaks of four games or more, so they are far from a sure thing against anyone. The Sun lost their home game to the Mystics by just 4 points, and have a double revenge situation here, which should give them a lift at home. Play on Connecticut. I'm also on the under here. Washington has been struggling on the offensive end all season, having scored in the 60s or less in nine games, and have averaged exactly 70 points per game in their meetings with Connecticut this year. The Sun have played UNDER in 17 of their last 26 games, choosing to shorten games to stay competitive. Washington has played six of their last seven overall to the UNDER, while the Sun are  10-4-1 to the UNDER in their last 15 within the conference. On three days rest, has they have topped the total just one time in their last seven. Play on Connecticut and take the UNDER.
