Connecticut Sun (W) Team Overview
Connecticut remain one of the tournament’s weakest teams, currently riding a four-game losing streak. In each of those defeats, their disastrous defense has been the main culprit. For instance, not long ago they suffered a blowout loss to Indiana, 88-123. Statistically, Connecticut’s defensive numbers are just as grim - they’re conceding nearly 90 points per game on the road. However, with an average of 80 points scored per outing, a respectable performance is still within reach. If they try to turn this into a shootout, it could actually work in their favor.

Editor's Pick
The hosts appear to hold a significant edge, especially when it comes to controlling their half of the court - though those strengths may only truly come into play down the stretch. For most of the contest, expect a fast-paced, high-tempo game with all the implications that brings, including the possibility for Connecticut to put together some strong offensive runs of their own. Our editorial team is leaning toward an offensive shootout here and backs the over 166.5 points as the best play for this matchup.
