Sun vs Sky Prediction
Both the Sun and Sky are coming off horrible, horrible losses, so we’ll see which side can get off the canvas. The difference for me is that the Sky have shown more signs of life overall and seem closer to getting a win. The lsot back to back home games to banged-up teams in the Mystics and Tempo. I said after those games that the Sun won’t win a game the rest of the season. I’m serious about that. The Sky already beat the Sun this season a few weeks ago. Cardoso is coming off an elite performance and should be able to build on that. Give me the Sky and the reasonable chalk.
