The Las Vegas Aces are the better team and at home, so they're going to be favored. The Aces also won game 1 despite shooting nowhere close to what they're capable of. Major confidence boost for the Aces. However, that's what the Connecticut Sun do, as they get after it defensively and find ways to hang around. The Sun could have easily won the first game, and they continue to cover numbers at a crazy rate. I've been saying it all year, I'll continue to grab free points with the Sun. It's paid off up to this point. Let's do it again.
Randy’s Pick Connecticut Sun +4.5
