Atlanta Dream (26-14) and Connecticut Sun (10-30) will return from the FIBA Women’s World Cup break with a league matchup at the Gateway Center Arena on Thursday night. The Dream headed into the break in fourth position, just three games behind the second-placed Valkyries. With four games remaining, they still have much to play for, including building a winning streak ahead of the playoffs. The Dream are the heavy -1400 betting favorites on Thursday.

Connecticut Sun are the +625 betting underdogs ahead of this clash. They’ll be hoping that big names such as Leila Lacan (France) and Kennedy Burke (Turkey) will return from the break with renewed energy to help the team finish the season strongly. The struggling Sun are facing the prospect of finishing last in the updated league standings, as they’re just two games ahead of the last-placed Seattle Storm. It has been a long campaign for them.
