Chicago Sky Can Win If…
They push pace and get downhill touches for Kamilla Cardoso while role players space and finish. Chicago’s bench crushed Connecticut 36–2 in the June 15 win, and similar secondary production can offset the likely absence of Angel Reese (back).
“We didn’t play with pace, and we didn’t play aggressive. We played right into their zone.” — Rachel Banham
Cardoso must draw contact and force rotations; Hailey Van Lith’s slashing and kick-outs are key to unlocking clean looks.
Connecticut Sun Can Win If…
They create enough half-court shot quality without Tina Charles (rest last game) and get Marina Mabrey back on track after a 1-for-7 outing vs. Golden State.
“No one can replace Tina… The four other players need to contribute and step up and take more responsibility and play with more aggressiveness.” — Rachid Meziane
Rookie Aneesah Morrow (13 pts, 14 reb) has been a bright spot; her activity on the glass can tilt extra possessions.
Key WNBA Betting Trends
| Trend Type | Chicago Sky | Connecticut Sun |
|---|---|---|
| Recent Form | Lost 10 of last 11 | Lost 10 of last 12 (L5) |
| Last H2H | Won 78–66 on June 15 (bench +34) | Fell 66–78 on June 15 |
| Injury Notes | Angel Reese (back) out recently | Tina Charles DNP (rest) last game |
| Offense Need | Pace/paint touches for Cardoso; bench scoring | Shot creation without Charles; crash glass (Morrow) |
The Lean
Both teams are searching, but Chicago’s prior matchup edge (bench depth, rim pressure) and Connecticut’s recent offensive funk slightly favor the visitors—provided the Sky get early paint touches and keep turnovers in check.
Pick: Sky to win a close one
Projected Score: Sky 78, Sun 73
