Connecticut Sun vs. Dallas Wings Prediction

I’m backing the Wings in this one. Plain and simple, it’s just about fading the Sun in a matchup against a Wings team that has done a good job of beating up on inferior competition for much of the season. I think this is just another smash spot for Dallas against one of the worst teams in the league so give me the Wings here.

Chris Ruffolo's Pick: Dallas -14.5
