The Dallas Wings will be on the road to face the Connecticut Sun on Friday at Mohegan Sun Arena. This will be the first matchup between the two teams this season. Both teams have gotten off to terrible starts and are languishing at the bottom of the standings. Connecticut is 12th with a 2-10 record, while Dallas is 13th with a 2-11 record.
The Wings are coming off of a 80-71 win against the Golden State Valkyries on Tuesday that broke a seven-game losing streak. Despite selecting Paige Bueckers No. 1 in this year’s draft, Dallas has struggled for consistency and seems to be going through another rebuilding year. Bueckers led the team with 20 points during Tuesday’s win.
The Suns are on a four-game losing streak. They most recently lost 83-75 to the Phoenix Mercury on Wednesday. Aneesah Morrow came off the bench to lead the team in scoring with 20 points, while Jacy Sheldon had 13 points. Olivia Nelson-Ododa had a double-double of 10 points and 14 rebounds.
The Wings vs Sun regular-season game is scheduled for 7:30 p.m. EDT at Mohegan Sun Arena. The game will be streamed live on WNBA League Pass.
