- The Storm lost to the Indiana Fever in their last game, a surprising result given that they held Caitlin Clark in check for most of that contest.

Best Player Props to Watch
| Player | Prop | Analysis |
|---|---|---|
| Nneka Ogwumike | Over 7.5 REB | Ogwumike averages 8.2 rebounds per game and should have her way with a Sun team that averages just 30.5 rebounds per game as a team. |
| Tina Charles | Over 15.5 PTS | Charles leads Connecticut with 16.2 points per game and will be their lone reliable scorer with Mabrey out. |

- Connecticut also has the worst defensive rating in the WNBA. Seattle is 8th.
- Both teams are in the bottom half of the league in pace. Connecticut is 11th in pace, while Seattle is 9th.

Connecticut Sun vs Seattle Storm Model Projection
Score Projection: Sun 72 – Storm 82
Win Probability: Connecticut 14%, Seattle 86%
Final Thoughts
Connecticut is clearly the worst team in the WNBA from what we’ve seen so far this season. But laying 19 points in this league is asking for trouble. Expect the Storm to win this game comfortably, but for the Sun to cover the number, while the game stays under the total, thanks mostly to the offensive ineptitude of the Sun.
