Connecticut Sun vs. Chicago Sky Prediction
I’m on the Sky here. I’m not trying to lay points with the Sky at the best of times against a lot of teams, but the Sun are just hopeless at this point and if it’s not for Seattle’s record, the Sun would be the worst team in the WNBA this season. Chicago isn’t great but I think they’re good enough to get the win here so give me Chicago in this one.
