The Connecticut Sun have not been very good, as they sit dead last in the WNBA’s Eastern Conference with a terrible 8-16 record. However, the Sun have quietly become one of the most consistent bets in all of sports right now.
Connecticut has covered the spread in nine of their past 10 games – which includes going a perfect 5-0 ATS in their past five. One of the biggest reasons for this is the overinflated lines that the Sun are playing with, as they have been spotted an average of 9.1 points per game in their past 10.
Despite closing as dogs in each of their past 10 contests, the Sun have gone 5-5 SU – including a 22-point victory over the Indiana Fever after closing at +8.
The Sun will play their next game on August 26, due to the break the WNBA takes for the Summer Olympics, against the Minnesota Lynx. The Lynx are one of the best teams in the league but actually lost to the Sun in their past meeting despite closing as an 11.5-point favorite.
