Washington Mystics vs Connecticut Sun Prediction & Picks: Our Expert Analysis

The Washington Mystics have been on a roll, winning 6 of their last 10 games and scoring an impressive 83.5 points a game. In contrast, the Connecticut Sun have struggled lately, winning only 2 of their last 10 and averaging just 78.5 points. Despite this, the point spread of 13.5 is quite generous, especially since the Mystics' expected final margin is only around 10.5 points. Connecticut's recent form makes them a risky pick, but they have the potential to keep the game closer than expected. With the Mystics at home, they might have the upper hand, but the Sun can surprise on their good days. Betting on Connecticut to cover the spread feels like it could pay off, but nothing is guaranteed. It was priced at -108 when we wrote this, so a $10 bet returns $19.30 if it lands. The number next to the team is the handicap, and that team's score is adjusted by it before the bet is settled. The bookmakers have this as a slight favourite. Our model leans this way without loving it. Prices move, so check the price at your bookmaker before you back it. And if this one does not feel right to you, skipping it is a perfectly good move.

That is how our model reads Washington Mystics v Connecticut Sun. Prices move, so check the price at your bookmaker before you back anything. And if a game does not feel right to you, the strongest move is to skip it -- there is another one tomorrow.
