Sun vs. Wings
Dallas will try to avenge an earlier loss to Connecticut when it hosts the Sun on Saturday. It’s worth noting that the game will tip off at 1 p.m. ET.
The Wings are in quite a slump, having lost each of their last six games. They could find things even more difficult against a Connecticut team that ranks first in Defensive Efficiency with 90.9 points allowed per 100 possessions.
In the previous meeting, the Sun limited the Wings to 72 points in the game.
Interestingly, the top three teams in the league rank in the bottom third in pace, with Connecticut being the slowest of the bunch.
The total opened at 158.5, and we’ve seen that number bet as low as 157 at some sportsbooks.
While some of the betting action might be attributed to Connecticut’s defense and pace, the early start time could also play a factor.
As a result, one way to find value in this game would be to target the first quarter to stay under 40.5 points.
Pick: 1Q – Under 40.5 points
