Two formidable franchises will be locking horns Saturday night at the ‘Windy City’. Just like Chicago, the Suns are also coming off a victory courtesy of an 83-82 overtime thriller against Minnesota. The area of concern for Angel Reese and the rest will come on the offensive front as Connecticut is among the best defensive units in the league. They conceded an average of 79.0 points per game and committed 18.4 fouls the previous season. Further, they ended their campaign with a 14-6 record in the Eastern Conference and 27-13 overall.
Clearly, Angel Reese is making everyone’s money’s worth in the WNBA. Her exhibition is turning a lot of heads along with bringing the desired results for the franchise. Additionally, she has been instrumental in helping the team defy all odds with her gritty approach.
While it is too early to say anything, Chicago as a unit is turning out to be one of the most clinical squads this time around. So, despite ESPN favoring Connecticut by 55.7% to win the upcoming battle, many won’t mind betting on Chicago to sweep the floor on Saturday. We will have to wait and see what the future holds.
