Las Vegas Aces vs Connecticut Sun Prediction
As usual, the Las Vegas Aces are getting the benefit of the doubt, especially at home. I get it. However, the Aces have been disappointing up to this point, and they haven’t won back to back games since May 25-29. The Connecticut Sun have the best record in the WNBA currently, and this will be just the second time this season where they’re underdogs. The Aces have failed to cover 10 of their last 14 games in the favorite role. The Aces have failed to cover 10 of their last 13 games when favorites of 5 or more points, and 5 of those failed covers were outright losses. The value is with the Sun and the free points.
