The Indiana Fever will try to keep their season going for at least one more game when they visit the Connecticut Sun for Game 2 of this first-round WNBA playoff series.
Connecticut won the first game of the series 93-69 on Sunday, and my Fever vs. Sun predictions expect another dominating performance from the favorites.

Fever vs Sun predictions
My best bet
Sun -6 (-115 at DraftKings)
My analysis
The Connecticut Sun have won four of the five matchups they’ve had this season with the Indiana Fever, and the games haven't been close at all.
That’s been especially true when the action has moved to Connecticut. At home, the Sun have beaten the Fever by an average of 20.7 points per game, and none of those three outings were decided by less than a 17-point margin.
The biggest problem for Indiana — as it has been all season — comes on the defensive end. Connecticut has scored 80+ points in all meetings, averaging 88.4 ppg.
Meanwhile, the Fever have been unable to get Caitlin Clark or any of their other players going on a consistent basis against the suffocating Sun defense. Connecticut leads the WNBA in defensive rating (94.1) and points allowed (73.5 ppg).
While this has been a great debut season for Clark, her run will end tonight, and it likely won’t be a close call.
Caitlin Clark pick: Clark ends spectacular season with a dud
My best bet
Under 20.5 points (-135 at DraftKings)
My analysis
Caitlin Clark has enjoyed one of the best rookie seasons in WNBA history but it hasn’t been without its bumps in the road — and one of the biggest obstacles to her success has been Connecticut.
She didn't top 21 points in any regular season meetings with the Sun, and in Game 1 of this series, Clark struggled from the floor — shooting 4-for-17 on her way to just 11 points in 36 minutes.
The Sun are also arguably the best defensive team in the league overall, making it hard to believe Clark will suddenly find a way to have a breakout game tonight.
Fever vs Sun same-game parlay (SGP)
Sun -6
Caitlin Clark Under 20.5 points
DeWanna Bonner 15+ points
The Sun shouldn’t have too much trouble putting the series away tonight, and I’m running with that idea in my same-game parlay.
I’ll also take DeWanna Bonner to get at least 15 points for the Sun on the winning side of this game. Bonner put up 22 points in Sunday’s Game 1 and has scored at least 17 points in four of her five matchups against the Fever so far this year.
