Washington at Connecticut

The Connecticut Sun will open at home against the Washington Mystics. The Sun has had a lot of success in this league, and has won the East in four of the last five seasons, and compiling a 109-61 record along the way. The Mystics have never quite gotten over the hump, as their best effort over the last five years has been an 18-16 mark. They slid to a five-year low, 10-24 in '08. The Sun has had success in their home arena, and won and covered the last two openers by big margins. The Mystics lost 10 of their 17 road games by eight points or more a year ago, and some of those teams weren't as good as Connecticut. I like the Sun to dominate once again in their home opener.
