Sun -1.5 (4 Units)
The Sky come into this game losers of four in a row, which began with a home loss to the Sun. Connecticut has lost two in a row and three of four games after a four-game win streak. These teams are the two lowest-scoring ones in the WNBA, but when they met several games back in Chicago, the Sun won a high-scoring game 94-84, where they shot over 51% from the floor. Neither of these teams is a strong defensive team either, and the Sun have given up at least 93 points in each of their last three games. Regarding the Connecticut Sun vs. Chicago Sky prediction, the Sun have played better in the last couple of weeks, and like in their previous game in Chicago, they will beat the Sky and cover the spread.
Over 162.5 (4 Units)
When these teams met several games back in Chicago, the total went over, and that is the pick I am leaning towards in this game. While these teams are the lowest-scoring ones in the league, each also has issues on defense. The Sun have given up at least 93 points in each of their last three games, and the three losses in their previous four games have come against playoff-bound teams. The Sky have not played bad D in their last three games, but have struggled to score, and this is especially the case from deep. Look for a similar game to the last matchup, as each team will put up a high total against the opposing defense, making the Over the pick.
