Atlanta at Connecticut

Atlanta ends a long three-game road trip. They traveled to the West Coast (Los Angeles and Seattle) and are now heading to the Northeast. Atlanta ranks eighth in the 13-team WNBA in field goal shooting (42%), while its defense is ninth in shooting allowed and seventh in points allowed (80.6 per game). Connecticut is fifth in free-throw shooting (79.4%) and in offensive rebounds. They come home from a two-game trek, including an 85-83 win at Indiana as a +11.5 underdog. Connecticut is home, so I'm working on four days of rest, and then I'll be back to the big home dog. Play Connecticut.
