Today's WNBA Basketball Picks:
Game: Connecticut at Chicago (8:30 PM Eastern)
Pick: 3 units on Chicago -2.5 (-110) (risk 3 to win 2.7)
The Connecticut Sun have a penchant for playing soft and not showing up in a lot of games this season. A big start got them feeling good about themselves, but they fell hard and fast as the season went on. Their first six wins were by 83 points and it looked like something special brewing. They have gone on to an 8-13 mark since. The Sun has been above the line for most of the season after a bad start, as they are now 13-7-1 ATS in their last 21. The Sun are sleep walking on the road to a 5-14 ATS mark in their last 19, and with no reason to show up here, I'll ride Chicago in this one.
Game: Minnesota at Los Angeles (10:30 PM Eastern)Pick: 3 units on Los Angeles -4 (-110) (risk 3 to win 2.7)
The Los Angeles Sparks could have closed up shop after Candace Parker went down with an injury, and although they struggled without her for awhile, they have improved as a team. This is a team that lost their star, and at 5-15 they could have taken a knee on the rest of the season, but they haven't. They have fought their way to a 7-5 run in their last 12. The Lynx made a mini run, but have since dropped three of their last four. They historically have had nightmares coming to Los Angeles where they are just 5-14 ATS in their last 19, and overall the Sparks have covered five of the last six, including a straight-up win in Minnesota in their last matchup. I like LA in this one.
Results: 1-1
