Chicago @ Connecticut picks

I’m taking the Under and counting on a rockfight between the WNBA’s two lowest-scoring squads. The Sky have been particularly dismal lately, ending up with 70 points or fewer in six of their last 10 contests, including a 49-point horror show against the Atlanta Dream last month. With Angel Reese still sidelined by a back injury, Chicago has nailed the Under in five straight games, and there’s no reason to expect a turnaround here, even when you factor in Connecticut’s ropey defense.

Mabrey seems to be coming out of a season-long shooting slump with 5+ threes in two of her previous three games. She faces a Chicago defense that’s allowed 36% shooting this season and almost 40% from downtown in their previous five away games.
