Golden State Valkyries vs. Connecticut Sun Prediction

I’m on the Valkyries here. Interestingly enough, it’s the first time in Golden State’s history that they’re a road favorite, but for good reason. I thought the Sun getting back Marina Mabrey would help? It didn’t. I thought Golden State losing Kayla Thornton would hurt them against Dallas, it didn’t. I need more points to consider Connecticut here, as the Valks are just too well coached to not back here to kick the Sun while they’re down. Give me Golden State.
