Washington Mystics @ Connecticut Sun

The Connecticut Sun maintain one of the league's most disciplined defensive systems, which matches up perfectly against a Washington Mystics squad struggling for offensive consistency. Washington's lack of interior depth will be exposed by the Sun's physical post rotation and efficient rebounding. Historically, the Sun have dominated this series at home, covering large spreads through suffocating perimeter pressure. The Mystics are playing their third game in six days, likely leading to late-game fatigue that favors Connecticut's depth. Expect the Sun's veterans to control the tempo and pull away in the second half for a double-digit victory.
