Los Angeles @ Connecticut picks

Marina Mabrey’s return to the Sun lineup brings multi-level scoring, playmaking, and defensive physicality to exploit an error-prone Sparks squad, which commits 16 turnovers per game. With home-court energy and Mabrey’s spark, the Sun should keep this game tight. 

All due respect to the oddsmakers in the fancy buildings, why do they continue to disrespect Kelsey Plum? She has cleared this prop in five straight games while shooting 51.6% from deep with four of those five games coming against quality perimeter defenses. This should not be a plus-money prop against a lackluster perimeter defense like Connecticut's.
