π Who will win Aces vs. Sun?
The Aces won the WNBA championship last season by going 25-3 from early August through the WNBA Finals, but even when Las Vegas was struggling early last season, it had no trouble thumping Connecticut in its own arena three times. It should be a similar outcome tonight.
Score prediction: Aces 95, Sun 78
π° Aces vs. Sun prediction & best bet
Aces -14.5 (-105)
The Sun are the most directionless team in the WNBA with a league-worst 11-35 record since last season. Connecticut was second-last in net rating in 2025 (-13.1) and is again this season (-22.2) while sitting in the bottom four in offensive rating (91.8) and defensive rating (114.0).
Without the offense to keep up with A'ja Wilson and Co., Connecticut lost four times last season to Vegas by an average margin of 19.2 points.
Coming off her fourth WNBA MVP, Wilson's dominance in the paint should kill a defense that allows the highest rim rate on defense in the league (37.2%).

π₯ Best Aces vs. Sun player prop bet
Jackie Young Over 6.5 assists (+111)
Wilson is the star of the show in Sin City, but she has one of the WNBA's best guards feeding her down low. Jackie Young was top 10 in the W in assists per game (5.1) and assist rate (30.9%) last season, with her passing coinciding with Vegas taking its play up a notch down the stretch.
During Vegas' run to a title last season, Young went Over 6.5 assists 11 times in her final 19 games (58%), and she's coming off a nine-assist outing against the Los Angeles Sparks.
Connecticut has one of the worst defenses in the WNBA and allowed 21.6 assists per game last season.
π Aces vs. Sun same-game parlay
The Aces are poised to beat up on a bad Connecticut defense with Wilson being fed by Young all night. The pair helped Las Vegas sweep the Sun last season, while hanging 85-plus points on them in every outing.
