The Connecticut Sun have struggled to win games this season, and the Golden State Valkyries have also found wins hard to come by. Something’s got to give when the two teams collide at Mohegan Sun Arena in the early window of Sunday’s busy WNBA slate.
My Valkyries vs. Sun predictions and WNBA picks expect Tina Charles and Veronica Burton to continue shining in a high-scoring matchup.
Valkyries vs Sun predictions
My Valkyries vs Sun best bet: Tina Charles Over 6.5 rebounds (-115 at bet365)
Tina Charles has powered the Connecticut Sun to a competitive five-game stretch with averages of 20.6 points and 9.8 boards. Her playing time increased to 34.2 minutes per game over that span, and she’s hit the Over on this rebound prop in five straight outings.
The veteran has been better at home in 2025, averaging seven rebounds at Mohegan Sun Arena compared to 4.8 boards across all other venues. She’s reached seven rebounds in just eight of 23 games, but her recent boost in playing time makes this a mispriced line, and one she should easily clear.
Charles has recorded at least seven rebounds in four of six games played at home with at least 30 minutes. She corralled six boards in just 20 minutes against the Golden State Valkyries in her first matchup of the season, so adding another board with additional playing time won’t be difficult.
Valkyries vs Sun same-game parlay (SGP)
Tina Charles Over 6.5 rebounds
Veronica Burton Over 22.5 points + rebounds + assists
Sun +4.5
Veronica Burton has been one of Golden State’s best players all season, thanks to her ability to score, rebound, and facilitate at a high level. She's averaging 10.7 points, 4.3 rebounds, and 5.3 assists this season, good for 20.3 PRA. Over her last five, that number is 23.4 PRA, and she's hit the Over on this line three times. With Kayla Thornton done for the season, Burton should see more scoring and rebounding chances.
Golden State is a healthy 14-9 ATS this season, but Connecticut hasn’t been too shabby at 11-12. The V’s have covered in just three of their last seven outings, while the Sun have covered in four of their last five. The Valkyries haven’t been quite as competitive on the road, and they’re just 2-3 ATS across their last five away from home. Connecticut has picked things up on both ends of the court as of late, so I’ll take the Sun to cover this small spread at home.
