The Atlanta Dream come into Connecticut on a three-game skid following a loss at Dallas against the struggling Wings on Friday night. The Dream are now just 2-8 in their last ten games following the loss. Atlanta led by two heading into the fourth quarter thanks to a hot night shooting. Overall, the Dream shot 56% from the floor, led by Allisha Gray’s 19 points. Gray also added eight assists and seven rebounds in the effort. Atlanta fell 85-82 thanks to sloppy play, however. They committed a season-high 28 turnovers in the game which translated into 38 points for the Wings.

Bonner and the Sun Shine
The Connecticut Sun have had few issues this season as they roll into this matchup with a record of 16-4. They started the season with nine straight victories and won 13 of their first 14 games. The Sun then lost two straight and three of four but have righted the ship with two straight wins including a 78-73 win over Western Conference-leading Minnesota on Thursday night. DeWanna Bonner led the way with 19 points and Alyssa Thomas had a triple-double with 13 points, 14 assists, and 10 rebounds.

Full-Game Side Bet

Rating:
A little over a week ago, Atlanta came into Connecticut and stunned the Sun, 78-74. That win snapped a three-game skid for Atlanta as they caught the Sun amid their rough stretch. The story of the game was Atlanta’s surprising shooting from long range. Not only is Atlanta one of the worst shooting teams from the perimeter in the WNBA but the Sun are one of the best perimeter defenses in the league. Atlanta shot over 40 percent from long range and pulled off the road upset. In the first meeting between these two teams, in Atlanta, the Sun dominated from the outset and rolled to a 19-point win. I expect more of that in this game. The Sun are too good a defensive team to have the same lapses on the perimeter as they had over a week ago. The Dream are also not a strong enough shooting team to replicate those numbers. The Sun will force turnovers and create easy buckets in this one and win comfortably.
Take Connecticut -10.5
Prediction: Connecticut -12

Rating:
When the Sun are clicking, they play a suffocating defense fueled by turnovers and transition basketball. In the first game against the Dream, that was on full display as the Sun defense held Atlanta to just 50 points in a comfortable win. In an uninspired second effort, the Sun allowed 78 points and lost by four to Atlanta. I expect much more of the intensity of game one in this game, particularly against an Atlanta team that is banged up and playing poorly. Expect the Dream to score in the low 60s and for this game to stay under the total.
Take the under.
Prediction: Under 152
