Connecticut Sun vs Dallas Wings Bet Builder Tips: Aces To Notch Another Win

Dallas Wings +2.5

It makes sense for Dallas to be underdogs on the road even after their 10-point win a few days ago. Their record against the spread is just 14-15-1 on the season, but we still like their chances of covering this small number on Friday night.

Connecticut comes into this one-off back-to-back losses. They have only been a middling team across their previous six outings.

Dallas’ confidence will be high after their win last time out, which ended a three-game losing streak. Even if the Sun does win, it could be by a very narrow margin following two single-digit margins in their first two games against the Wings.

Over 168.5 total points

These teams combined for 172 points a few days ago despite neither team getting especially hot from the field. The first two matchups went under this line, but the last contest is a better indicator of how this one will play out.

Five of the Wings’ last six games have hit this over, and many of them emphatically. Their games have frequently got up to the 180 mark and sometimes well beyond, which gives us confidence in taking the over on this line.

Dallas Wings over 86.5 points

The Wings dropped 91 when they faced the Sun last weekend. They have exceeded this team total in nine of their last 11 games, including four games during that span with 96 or more points. While the offence has not always been the most efficient, they play at a high enough pace to generate extra possessions and inflate their scoring numbers.

Their knack for steals and offensive rebounds is important here, too. There should be some easy points out there for the Wings, taking them into the high eighties.
