Connecticut at Chicago

The Connecticut Sun won just 10 games last season, worse than even Tulsa and the worst in the league. They made some wholesale changes in the offseason. They are building their team around a rising star in Chiney Ogwumike who is averaging 18 points per game and 9 rebouns per game to start the season. They will square off against a Chicago team that has gotten some good mileage out of players while Prince, and Fowles are ready to take the floor again. That presents a valued situation on the dog here, as Chicago is clearly overrated right now. The Sky have gone for 72 or more points in all five of their games on the season, but have also allowed 68 or more in four of the five, so the tempo should be crisp for this one. Remember, the Sun lost by 10 oints here already this season, so they will have some motivation while Chicago could certainly be on cruise control. The Sun put up 87 on Minnesota on the road, and got that one into overtime. You could expect a similar situation tonight, with a disinterested Sky team owning a win over the Sun already, and off a loss in their biggest game of the season last time out vs. Minnesota. The Sun are a surprising 5-0 ATS off a spread loss in their last five, and are 18-7-1 ATS on no days rest in their last 26. These teams are 4-1 to the OVER in their last five in Chicago as well. Play on Connecticut and the OVER.
