Dallas Form & Recent Results

Dallas heads into this one trying to stop the skid, having lost two straight and three of their last five. Their most recent setback came Friday night in Washington, an 81–75 road loss where Paige Bueckers carried the scoring load with 23 points. Jessica Shepard impacted the game in other ways, finishing with 6 rebounds and 8 assists as the Wings tried to piece together enough offense late but couldn’t quite get over the top.

This season, Bueckers has clearly been Dallas’ engine, leading the team at 20.8 points per game and also pacing them in playmaking at 6.0 assists a night. Arike Ogunbowale has been the next-most reliable scoring option at 15.1 points per game, giving the Wings a strong second threat on the perimeter. Shepard has been their anchor on the glass, pulling down a team-best 11.9 rebounds per game. Defense has been the bigger concern lately, though over their last five games Dallas is giving up 88.2 points per contest, and they’ll need to tighten that up if they want to break the two-game losing streak Sunday night against a struggling Connecticut Sun team.

Connecticut Form & Recent Results

Connecticut comes into Sunday’s matchup in a rough patch, riding a four-game losing streak and having dropped four of its last five overall. Their most recent setback was a 94–88 road loss to Chicago on Thursday, where Aneesah Morrow led the way with 21 points. Olivia Nelson-Ododa did her work on the glass with 11 rebounds, and Leila Lacan helped keep the offense moving with 6 assists, but it still wasn’t enough to snap the skid.

Connecticut vs. Dallas Picks and Prediction

The Suns have had a rough season so far, losing 22 of their first 29 games. Dallas hasn’t exactly been on a roll lately either, but seeing Connecticut’s record gives them a clear opportunity, and plenty of motivation, to get back on track and finally put together a strong performance. For Connecticut, the path to ending this skid starts on the defensive end where they’ll need to come out sharp from the opening tip, protect the paint, and make Dallas work for everything at the rim if they want a real shot at turning things around. Final Score Prediction, Dallas Stars win and cover the spread, 95-80.
