Chicago Sky vs. Connecticut Sun Prediction
I’m on the Sky here. I know it’s a big number for Chicago, but the Sky are the only team fighting for something at this point. The Sun are counting down their days in Connecticut and at a certain point, they’ll show some fight for the fans that have supported them through the years before they head to Houston. However, this isn’t one of those spots. Give me the Sky.
