Sun vs Sky Prediction: Who will win?

Previous matchups might have been close encounters between the Sun and Sky, but the game on June 15 seems to be a one-sided fixture. The absence of Vandersloot and the recent performance of Angel Reese are major concerns for the Chicago team. Kamila Cardoso showed a glimpse of her ‘All-Rookie season’, but she is yet to exert ‘expected’ dominance on the court. Connecticut Sun, on the other hand, have no reported injuries. Tina Charles and Olivia Nelson-Ododa may have to play their best game to put pressure on the Sky’s forward line.

Prediction

The Sun team is expected to win the game. As per the prediction, it might be a low-scoring affair with a scoreline of 75-70 in favor of the Connecticut Sun.

Sun vs Sky Betting Odds

Considering the injury considerations and previous performances from both teams, the Sun vs Sky betting odds are as follows,
• Spread: Sky +3.5
• Moneyline: Sun +115, Sky -120
• Total Points: Over/Under 145.5 (-110)
Expect a fiercely competitive matchup with both teams battling hard for every point. But poor form and injury concerns of the Sky franchise do not inspire confidence, combined with the rich scoring form of Sun's guard Marina Mabrey. The Moneyline here means you need to bet $120 on the Sun to win $100.

Sun vs Sky Players to Watch

The Connecticut Sun and Chicago Sky looked to shake up their respective franchises, making trades and adding talent through the 2025 WNBA draft. The Chicago team kept two of its rookies while Reese and Cardoso are playing in their sophomore season. Connecticut Sun has the youngest roster with five rookies and four other players with less than four years’ experience. Check out the player to watch in the Sun vs Sky game.

Angel Reese (Chicago Sky)

The rebound leader in the 2024 season is once again leading the same stat in the 2025 season. Even though she is struggling to score beyond 20 points in a game, she recently scored 14 points against a defensively strong Liberty side. Partnering with Kamila Cardoso, Reese has been a force to reckon with for the Sky. She is a key player in spacing and also defending. Reese is expected to have a productive game against the Sun.

Marina Mabrey (Connecticut Sun)

Marina Mabrey is the engine of the Connecticut Sun's offence. With her excellent passing and scoring ability, the 28-year-old star has been a constant threat to the Sun’s opponents. The consistent performer, Mabrey, is one of the experienced stars on the roster, combining well with the rookies. Averaging 17.1 points and 3.9 assists per game, Marina is leading the team in the same. She also averages 5.8 rebounds in the league, putting her in the third position within the Sun Franchise.
