Las Vegas Aces vs. Connecticut Sun Prediction
I’m on the Aces in this one. I think game one was just a preview of a likely carbon copy that we see in the rematch between these two teams as there’s just a clear talent disparity between these two teams. I’m sure Connecticut will find some wins at home to send the fans home happy in the Sun’s last year in Uncasville, but in the end, this isn’t one of them. Give me the Aces once again here.
