Previous Game Recap & Box Score
Neither team was able to find a win in its most recent outing. Chicago dropped a heartbreaking 93-92 decision on the road against Dallas, marking another close loss during a difficult stretch. Connecticut also came up short, falling 101-97 at home against Toronto in a competitive contest. Both teams showed the ability to score points, but defensive issues once again proved costly as each club extended its current losing streak.
Can Chicago Finally End Its Slide?
Chicago enters this matchup with a 4-11 overall record and a 3-5 mark away from home. The Sky have struggled recently, losing each of their last five games. During that stretch, they recently lost to Dallas by one point, fell to New York by a single point, suffered an overtime defeat against Indiana, lost to Atlanta, and were beaten by Toronto on the road. Despite the losses, several of those games were highly competitive and decided in the closing moments.
The Sky have averaged 83.7 points per game this season while shooting 43% from the field. They also average 33.4 rebounds and 19.5 assists per contest. Defensively, Chicago has allowed 88.7 points per game. The team has contributed 5.7 blocks and 6.9 steals per game.

One area that stands out for Chicago is its ability to create offense. The Sky score more than 83 points per game and average nearly 20 assists per contest. While their defense has allowed opponents to score at a high rate, the offense has been productive enough to keep games close, as evidenced by several narrow losses over the last two weeks.
Connecticut Looking to Snap a Seven-Game Losing Streak
Connecticut enters Monday's contest with a 2-15 record overall and a 1-7 mark at home. The Sun have lost seven straight games and have also dropped each of their last five contests. They recently lost to Toronto, Washington, Indiana, Toronto again in overtime, and New York. Although the losses have piled up, several of those games were competitive into the final minutes.
The Sun are averaging 79.2 points per game while shooting 42% from the field. They collect 33.2 rebounds and 18.7 assists per contest. Defensively, Connecticut is allowing 89.8 points per game. The Sun average 4.1 blocks and 8.0 steals, with their steals total ranking slightly ahead of Chicago's average.
A key challenge for Connecticut has been preventing opponents from scoring efficiently. The Sun are allowing nearly 90 points per game while scoring just over 79 themselves. Their ability to generate steals has been a positive, but the overall scoring differential has made it difficult to close out games during this lengthy losing streak.
Chicago Sky vs Connecticut Sun Picks and Prediction
Chicago Sky vs Connecticut Sun Pick
- Pick: Chicago Sky -3.5
Chicago has not been winning games recently, but the Sky have consistently been competitive. Three of their last five losses were decided by one possession, including a one-point loss to Dallas and a one-point defeat against New York. Connecticut has also been competitive at times, but the Sun have dropped seven straight games and are allowing 89.8 points per contest. Chicago owns the better matchup predictor percentage, scores more points per game, shoots slightly better from the field, and enters with a more favorable overall statistical profile. Those factors make the Sky the preferred side.
