I rank Connecticut as the third-best team in the WNBA behind only Las Vegas and New York, both of whom are loaded with stars.

The Sun are 14-5 this season. Their only losses were to Atlanta in overtime and to the Aces and Liberty. The Sun are 13-5 ATS versus sub .500 opponents.

I see Connecticut taking care of business against the Sky, who are enduring a rough season and already have made a coaching change.

Chicago is 3-8 in its last 11 games. The Sky's only victories during this span have occurred against the Fever and Sparks. The Fever is 1-8 in their last nine games. The Sparks are 2-8 in their last 10 games.

(Editor's note: Stephen Nover is 7-1 on his last eight WNBA premium/free plays and has his July WNBA Game of the Month today in addition to this free selection.)
