The Sky and Washington Mystics are each one game behind the Atlanta Dream for the 8th and final playoff spot heading into Thursday’s finale. The Dream will face the No. 1-ranked New York Liberty, while Washington hosts the Indiana Fever.

Connecticut has won the season series so far, but the margin has been 4 points or fewer in two of the three meetings and 8 points or fewer in each of the meetings this season. The Over has won all three games and four consecutive games in the series.

The Sky have lost 4 games in a row and are only 1-4 in the 5 games since his rookie appearance Angel Reese went down with a season-ending wrist injury. The only win on September 8 was against the weak Dallas Wings. Chicago also has a record of 0-4 against the spread (ATS) in the 4-game losing streak.

Tips and forecasts for Sky at Sun

forecast

Sun 84, Sky 66

Money line

Connecticut (-900) will cost you 9x your potential win, and that’s way too much risk for nowhere near enough win. The Sun are still fighting to keep the 3rd seed in the playoffs.

Although Chicago (+600) is still mathematically in the running for a postseason spot, it is in a very difficult position after losing Reese and has been a shadow of its former self lately, even worse than the version that didn’t win many games to begin with.

AVOID.

Against the spread

Play CONNECTICUT -13.5 (-105) Identify the important points, but be careful not to get carried away.

While the Sun have dominated this series in the previous 3 meetings, the overall lead is 14 points or 4.7 points per game (PPG). Of course, Reese has been in the frontcourt in each of these games, giving the team 2nd and 3rd chances with her rebounding ability.

Over/Under

UNDER 153.5 (-110) is the slim one, but go with a Half-unit game at best.

The Sky’s under record in their last 4 away games is 3-1 while the Sun have scored just 5-2 points in their last 7 away games overall. The Sky’s over record in the 3 meetings between these teams earlier this season is 3-0, but Chicago have scored 70 or fewer points in 3 of their last 4 away games during this losing streak.
