Connecticut Sun Betting Preview
The Connecticut Sun have struggled mightily this year, going 1-6 in their first seven games and 0-3 on their home floor. They are coming off of a blowout loss to the New York Liberty, with the 100-52 margin being the second biggest margin of victory in league history. Here, the Sun will look to bounce back and, just as importantly, show some heart after an embarrassing showing.
Key Players:
- Tina Charles: Averaging 16.1 points per game, Charles is playing at a high level and is one of the few veteran presences this roster can count on.
- Olivia Nelson-Ododa: Nelson-Ododa leads the Sun in rebounding with 6.4 boards per game. Against a loaded Atlanta frontcourt, her contributions will be vital.
Team Statistics:
- Offensive Efficiency: The Sun average 70.9 points per game for the season, which is the worst number in the WNBA in 2025.
- Defensive Prowess: Connecticut also has the second-worst scoring defense in the WNBA, giving up 89.1 points per game.
Atlanta Dream Betting Preview
The Atlanta Dream are off to an excellent start to the year, going 5-2 overall and 3-1 on the road. They brought in Brionna Jones and Brittney Griner in the offseason to create a dominant frontcourt and that has worked out spectacularly so far, as Atlanta looks like an early championship contender. Here, they will look for a second win over the Sun on the season after beating them 79-55 in Atlanta on May 25.
Key Players:
- Allisha Gray: Gray leads the Dream in scoring this season, putting up 21.4 points per game. She provides another threat beyond Rhyne Howard and the bigs that this team has to offer.
- Brionna Jones: The former Connecticut Sun player will make her return to Mohegan Sun Arena in this game for the first time as a member of the Dream.
Team Statistics:
- Offensive Excellence: The Dream rank second to the New York Liberty in scoring average this season, putting up 85.9 points per game so far this season.
- Defensive Lapses: Atlanta does give up 80.6 points per game, as their vulnerability does come on the defensive end of the floor.

Atlanta Dream vs Connecticut Sun Prediction
Considering the current dynamics, the Connecticut Sun probably won’t win this game outright. But we have to think that they are going to show some heart here after getting thoroughly embarrassed in their last game against New York. Look for the Sun to keep this game reasonably close, though we expect Atlanta to win it in the end.
Prediction: Connecticut Sun to cover the spread, Atlanta to win outright.
Projected Score: Dream 80, Sun 75
