We get our first early weekday start of the season in the WNBA on Thursday, as the Dallas Wings visit the Chicago Sky. This game will start at 11:00 AM local time in Chicago, which could mean any number of things for two teams stuck in the middle of extended losing streaks. Keep reading for our WNBA betting picks for Wings vs Sky from Chicago.
This game will be played at Wintrust Arena at 12:00 PM ET on Thursday, June 20, 2024.
Dallas Wings
The Dallas Wings have the longest active losing streak in the WNBA right now. They have lost eight games in a row going into Thursday’s matchup with the Chicago Sky. And they might not have their top offensive weapon in Arike Ogunbowale to help them overcome the adversity that they are currently going through.
Ogunbowale is dealing with an Achilles injury that saw her miss the team’s last game against the Minnesota Lynx. Without Ogunbowale, the Wings looked rough offensively in Minnesota, despite a strong showing from Sevgi Uzun in an elevated offensive role. If Ogunbowale misses this game, the Wings could be headed for a ninth straight loss as they are closer to last place in the WNBA standings than they are to the top-eight and a playoff spot.
Chicago Sky
Going into Thursday’s Wings vs Sky matchup from Chicago, the Chicago Sky have lost four games in a row themselves. That includes their most recent defeat over the weekend at the hands of the Indiana Fever, their second loss to Indiana in as many tries. Here, the Sky will look to bounce back and get a much-needed win to keep up with the Fever in the race for eighth place in the W.
Right now, the key for the Sky is getting consistent play out of their guards outside of Chennedy Carter. Carter has been electric either off the bench or as a fifth starter for Chicago. But a lack of consistent scoring from weapons like Dana Evans and Marina Mabrey has left the Sky in a rough spot, something that has to change if this team is going to get better as the season goes along.
