Los Angeles Sparks vs. Connecticut Sun Prediction

I’m on the Sparks here. No Kelsey Plum for the Sparks definitely brings this team down a notch and in a situation like this, one might think this could be just a winnable spot for the Sun, one of the few this team will probably have in their final season in Connecticut. However, the Sun are just so bad right now, as the offense is non-existent and this team is getting crushed far more often than not. Even on a back-to-back, I have to ride with the Sparks here.
