The over is 5-2 in Sun last 7 games as an underdog. The over is 19-6-1 in Sky last 26 overall. The Sun are 0-6 ATS in the last 6 meetings. The over is 4-0 in the last 4 meetings.
The Connecticut Sun continue to struggle mainly on the offensive end and have failed to cover seven of their last 10 games. The Chicago Sky are playing some of their best basketball in years and look really good offensively. If these numbers hold true, the Sky should have little trouble cruising to a comfortable victory. I’ll lay the chalk.
