Caitlin Clark and the Indiana Fever look to stay hot Wednesday when they host the Connecticut Sun at Gainbridge Fieldhouse.

Tipoff is set for 7 p.m. ET on NBA TV as we offer our best Sun vs. Fever prediction and expert picks.

The Sun are favored between 2.5 and 3.5 points to beat the Fever across our best sports betting sites, which also have Connecticut priced among the favorites to win the title.

But Indiana is surging since the Olympic break behind its star rookie.

Sun vs. Fever expert picks

WNBA picks confidence based on a 1-to-5-star scale; odds via our best sports betting apps.

Fever +3.5 (-110 via bet365) ⭐⭐⭐⭐
Aliyah Boston Over 10.5 rebounds (-110 via FanDuel) ⭐⭐⭐
Caitlin Clark Under 5.5 rebounds (+105 via DraftKings) ⭐⭐⭐

Sun vs. Fever prediction

Fever +3.5 ⭐⭐⭐⭐

Connecticut is one of the top teams by the WNBA championship odds, and deservedly so. But Indiana has looked every bit as good (if not better) over the last few weeks.

Since the Olympic break, the Fever rank third in net rating (+7.2) ahead of the Sun (+4.8) with each team losing just one game. Indiana has excelled on the offensive end behind Clark's playmaking brilliance, while Connecticut has flexed its muscle on the defensive end.

Can Fever avoid season sweep?

The Sun have won all three meetings this season with the Fever, but Indiana has played like a different team since the last time these sides met.

Following that 89-72 loss in Connecticut on June 10, Indiana has won 11 of 17 games - a half-game worse than the Sun (12-6) - with Clark averaging 19.2 points and 9.9 assists across that 11-6 run.

The Fever have also won eight of nine home games in that stretch, and I wouldn't be surprised to see an outright upset in the final matchup of the year between these two.

Best Sun vs. Fever player props

Aliyah Boston Over 10.5 rebounds ⭐⭐⭐

While Clark has worked her magic in the backcourt, Boston has quietly been putting in work on the glass after a slow start to the season.

Last year's No. 1 pick is averaging 11 rebounds over the last 18 games after clearing that total just once in her first dozen starts. She's grabbed at least 11 boards in three consecutive games and five of her last seven contests, including three games with at least 15 rebounds.

She's +500 at bet365 to grab 15 rebounds again on Wednesday, which is an intriguing play at a reduced unit size, but the best bet on the board is this safer total at standard -110 odds.

Caitlin Clark Under 5.5 rebounds ⭐⭐⭐

We tried to fade Clark's rebounding total on Monday, only for her to finish with seven rebounds for the first time in eight starts.

She's still fallen short of this prop total in three of her last four games, and I think she'll face another tough test against a Sun lineup that ranks third in rebound rate (51.3%).

The real draw here is these outlier +105 odds via DraftKings, which would profit $10.50 on a $10 wager.

Considering the rest of our best sportsbooks have the Under priced at -115 or worse, this is worth betting on that alone.

Best odds: +105 via DraftKings | Implied probability: 48.78%
