Winning at sports betting often requires contrarian opinions and ugly picks. The Connecticut Sun fit that profile with a WNBA -worst 3-20 record. But a deeper dive shows a more attractive option than at first glance. Despite their grotesque record, they are a respectable 11-12 against the spread (ATS).
The Valkyries shot 30.3% from the field in the first half and trailed by as much as 11. Janelle Salaün and Tiffany Hayes combined to score 16 points to keep the Valkyries within striking distance as the Wings took a 36-30 lead at halftime.
