Result:
LOSS

While neither of these teams aren't the caliber they were a year ago, they are both good candidates to make the playoffs, so this one should be played with intensity. While the Sun is 4-8 on the road, they have deserved better than that as they dropped three of those games in overtime and four by a single possession, so they have certainly been more competitive than the record would indicate. The Sun has really come together on the offensive end of the floor and has played much better because of it. The Sun managed 80 points just four times in their first 14 games, but has since touched 80 or more in nine of their last 13. The Storm has always been tough at home, but has suffered two of their three losses to teams from the East, and had another decided by just a single point. The Storm is 6-13 ATS and is still being given credit for the team that they were a year ago and they simply are not. They are scoring more, but allowing more at the same time. They are also at their worst off a single days rest, 0-4 ATS in their last four, and have really struggled against the Eastern Conference teams, at just 2-8-1 ATS in their last 11. The Sun has now grabbed the money in five of the last six between these two teams. I like Connecticut in this one, and the total going OVER as well.
