Shane’s Free Pick

The Sun’s defense has been an issue the last couple of games, and that is going to be a problem again here. The Wings put up 91 points against the Sun in the last game, and they are going to have no issue running up the score here. The Wings offense is ranked 3rd in the WNBA and they are going to score at least 90 points again here. The Sun again are going to have no answer, and this will be a victory for Dallas. Back the Wings to win this game and cover the spread.
