Dallas Wings (5-2)

@ Connecticut Sun (4-2)

 

Current odds:

Dallas Wings: (+255)

Connecticut Sun: (-310)

 

• The line for this game is Sun by 7.5 points.

• The Dallas Wings look to complete a two-game road sweep of the Connecticut Sun as well as notch their fourth consecutive overall victory when the two teams square off Thursday night at Uncasville, Conn.

• The Wings (5-2) are flying high after overcoming a 12-point halftime deficit on Tuesday to post an 85-77 win over the Suns. Dallas scored 58 points in the second half after having just 27 at the break.

• Connecticut (4-2) had a four-game winning streak snapped on what was an emotional day for the squad. Earlier Tuesday, the Sun learned that veteran point guard Jasmine Thomas will miss the rest of the season with a torn ACL in her right knee. The team captain was injured during Sunday’s win over the Indiana Fever, and Connecticut is figuring out how to best replace the 32-year-old Thomas.

• Natisha Hiedeman moved into the starting lineup on Tuesday and had 11 points, two assists and no turnovers in 18 minutes. DiJonai Carrington added five points, two assists and no turnovers in 17 minutes off the bench.

• Brionna Jones, Jonquel Jones and Alyssa Thomas led the Sun with 13 points apiece.

• Marina Mabrey led Dallas with 20 points. It was her second straight effort of 20 or more and third of the season.

• Allisha Gray added 17 points and eight rebounds and Arike Ogunbowale had 16 points.
