Stephen Nover's WNBA Sunday Spread Beater - 11-2 (85%) WNBA Hot Streak
(WNBA) Fever (IND) vs. Sun (CONN),
Point Spread: -4.50 | -125.00 Sun (CONN) (Home)
Result: Win
It's been a great season for rookie Caitlin Clark and the Indiana Fever making the playoffs after they went 13-27 last year.

But there are four major factors working against the Fever now: Playoff inexperience, being on the road, facing the veteran Sun - the top defensive team in the WNBA - and the horrendous coaching of Christie Sides.

That's all going to catch up to Indiana in this opening game matchup.

Connecticut is one of four elite teams in the league. Indiana is a clear tier below. The Sun gave up 73.6 points per game, lowest in the WNBA. The Fever surrendered 87.7 points a game, which was second-highest in the league.

The Suns buried the Fever in the two games they hosted them winning by 17 and 21 points, respectively.
