The offense is ranked 6th in the WNBA while the defense is ranked 5th. Elena Delle Donne missed hte last game after she returned from injury two games ago, and if she can’t go that’s another big loss for them. 

Shane’s Free Pick

Even if Delle Donne is back, the Mystics are going to really struggle in this game. The Sun’s defense is giving up 79.3 points per game and they are going to lockdown again in this game. The Mystics aren’t going to get over 75 points here, and that will be the difference as Connecticut is going to get the job done. Back the Sun to cover the spread here. 

Shane’s Pick Sun -5.5
