Toronto Looking to Get Back on Track

The Tempo enter Friday's matchup with a 7-8 overall record and a 3-5 mark on the road. Toronto has dropped three consecutive games, recently losing to Indiana by a 113-91 score, Atlanta by a 102-77 margin, and Washington by an 86-85 final. Prior to that stretch, the Tempo picked up victories over Connecticut in overtime and Chicago by a 17-point margin.

The biggest strength for Toronto is its offensive production. The Tempo are averaging 88.8 points per game, more than ten points higher than Connecticut's average. Their ability to generate offense has helped them remain competitive despite allowing more than 91 points per game.

Connecticut Hoping to End a Difficult Slide

The Sun enter the game with a 2-14 overall record and a 1-6 home record. Connecticut has lost five straight games, recently falling to Washington, Indiana, Toronto, New York, and Chicago. Four of those losses were by single-digit margins, including the overtime defeat against Toronto earlier this month.

Connecticut is averaging 78.1 points per game while allowing 89.1 points per contest. The Sun have shot 42% from the field and averaged 33.1 rebounds and 18.6 assists per game. Defensively, they have recorded 4.1 blocks and 7.9 steals per game.

One area where Connecticut has struggled is offensive consistency. The Sun are averaging just 78.1 points per game, which is significantly lower than Toronto's scoring average. While Connecticut has been competitive in several recent games, generating enough offense has often been a challenge.
