Indiana FevervsConnecticut Sun
The preview
The Indiana Fever roll into Mohegan Sun Arena on Saturday night as the class of this matchup — they're sitting at 7-5 while the Connecticut Sun have been taking L after L at a brutal 2-12. Vegas agrees in a big way, spotting Indy as 10.5-point favorites with the total sitting at 171.5, so someone's expected to put up buckets.
The Sun are clearly in a rough stretch and have been a mess on defense, so if the Fever come out sharp they could run an absolute clinic in the paint and have this one in hand by halftime. Bold call: Fever cover easy and it's not close — Connecticut just doesn't have the horses to hang with a team that's been playing this well.
