Connecticut at Phoenix

The Connecticut Sun and the New York Liberty are battling it out for the best record in the Eastern Conference. The Sun trails by a single game, so it comes out just thinking about winning here, and that usually means sending a defensive message to their opponent. Phoenix has seen just three of its last 12 games playing OVER the total, but things have changed lately. Phoenix scored 91 points in all of their last three games. The Suns have shot better than 50% in back-to-back games after not doing so for over a month. The Sun has a pair of more challenging games vs Dallas in their next two after this one. Phoenix has just one road win all season, but they are much better at home where they are 7-7. I think Sun gets a wakeup call as the first half plays OVER the total.
