The Las Vegas Aces are playing the better ball entering this contest, but they're still hit or miss at times and their defense can really fall apart out of nowhere. The Connecticut Sun haven't played to their full potential this season, but they're still super talented and still capable of putting together a run here. In fact, the Sun are coming off back to back big victories where the offense has caught fire. This line is disrespectful toward the Connecticut Sun at home. Give me the free bucket.
