Sun vs Aces Prediction
I don’t want to lay this many points on the road as much as the next guy, but we just saw the Aces take the Sun behind the barn on Wednesday, winning 98-69. The Sun haven’t played a lick of defense through three games and they’re 0-3 ATS as well. The Sun have failed to cover 8 of their last 9 games dating back to last season. Usually games are more competitive the second time around in a short span but there’s nothing the Sun has shown up to this point that suggests things will be different. The Sun are making a strong early case for the worst team in the W. Give me the Aces in a beatdown.
