The Connecticut Sun will take on the Golden State Valkyries today at the Mohegan Sun Arena in Uncasville, CT. Tipoff is scheduled for 1 p.m. EST. Fans can catch the game on the CBS Sports Network.
Both teams are coming off a tough week. Golden State did not lose their last game; they beat the Dallas Wings 86-76. However, they lost their leading scorer to a season-ending knee injury earlier in the week. As for the Sun, a tough season continued with their latest loss, 101-86 at the hands of the LA Sparks. It was their fourth consecutive loss and the 20th of the season.
Golden State has been a pleasant surprise this season and could become the first WNBA expansion team to make the playoffs in their inaugural season, a task now made harder with the loss of Thornton. However, the team has talent. The question now is who will step up and fill the void left by Thornton’s absence. For some odd reason, Connecticut decided to go into rebuild mode this season. They have struggled on both ends of the court throughout the season, ranking last in scoring (73.3) and points allowed (88.5).

Our Golden State Valkyries vs Connecticut Sun Prediction
This is the first time in team history that Golden State is a road favorite. It is not hard to understand why, despite their poor road record. Golden State lost an essential piece of the puzzle this week, and it showed in the first half against Dallas. But they figured out how to adjust, came back in the second half, and won by ten. Connecticut has struggled all season, and there appears to be no end in sight to its difficulties. Marina Mabrey has returned, but they need so much more than one player.
