Connecticut Sun vs Indiana Fever Prediction

The Indiana Fever couldn’t play any worse than they did in game 1, and I’m going to expect a better effort from Caitlin Clark. The problem is it may not be enough. The Fever have fallen off a cliff defensively these last couple of weeks, and it’s led to spotty results. The Fever are also 2-8 ATS in their last 10 games when underdogs of 5 or more points. The Connecticut Sun have covered each of their last 6 games when favorites of 5 or more points. I’d love to see a home playoff game in Indiana with Clark going crazy, but there’s a lot leaning toward a comfortable Sun victory. I’ll lay the buckets with Connecticut.
