The last thing the winless Connecticut Sun (0-2) needs is a date with the defending WNBA champions.
They can thank the schedule makers for this matchup, as the Las Vegas Aces (1-1) come into town fresh off their first win of the season.
My Aces vs. Sun predictions and WNBA picks for Wednesday, May 13, stick with the champs, who have beaten up Connecticut for two straight calendar years.
Aces vs Sun prediction
Aces vs Sun best bet: Aces -14.5 (-110)
It has been complete domination for the Las Vegas Aces in this head-to-head, winning eight straight, with the margin of victory inside double digits just twice.
You have to go back to June 8, 2023, for the last time the Connecticut Sun took one from Vegas.
The Aces are a crisp 7-1-0 against the spread during this streak, and they have covered three of the last four double-digit spreads against the Sun.
Connecticut is third-worst in scoring in the WNBA and has cracked the 70-point plateau just four times in the last eight against Vegas.
COVERS INTEL: Vegas is second in the WNBA in shooting from the field at 51.4%, while Connecticut is Bottom-4 in FG Defense, allowing teams to shoot a sharp 48.4% from the field.
Aces vs Sun same-game parlay
It sounds insane to take A’ja Wilson to go Under against the Sun, but these matchups have been mostly blowouts, a big reason she’s gone for 24 points or more just three times in the last 10 meetings. Veteran big Brittney Griner defending the paint could also have an effect.
And Chelsea Gray is coming off a 4-for-5 game from 3-point range in Vegas’ 105-78 thumping of LA, and the 2014 first-round pick of the Sun loves shooting against her former squad, firing at a blistering 40.7% from 3-point range.
Aces vs Sun SGP
- Aces -14.5
- A'ja Wilson Under 23.5 points

Aces vs Sun first basket scorer: A'ja Wilson (+375)
The reigning MVP and Finals MVP is never a bad pick to open the scoring.
Not surprisingly, Connecticut has conceded the first bucket in both of its games this year. Last season, Wilson opened the scoring twice in the four-game regular season series.
