WNBA Dream vs. Sun Prediction, Odds & Key Players for Sunday, July 7 (Bet This Alli)

WNBA Dream vs. Sun Prediction, Odds & Key Players for Sunday, July 7 (Bet This Alli)

For the second time in 10 days, the Connecticut Sun faces the Atlanta Dream, a match that did not live up to the CT on June 28.

The Dream have struggled of late, winning just two of their last 10 games, but they beat the Sun by four points in Connecticut.

Bookmakers don’t seem too concerned about that outcome, as they have favored the Sun 16-4 by 13.5 points at home on Sunday.

With Jordin Canada, Rhyne Howard and Aerial Powers injured for the Dream, this game is going to be tough to win on the road. So how do you bet?

Let’s take a look at the latest odds, key players to watch and more for this match.

Atlanta Dream Injury Report

Connecticut Sun Injury Report

The Atlanta Dream

Allisha Gray: With Rhyne Howard out, Allisha Gray has taken over as the Dream’s No. 1 offensive player and is thriving. Over her last four games, Gray is averaging 19.8 points, 5.0 rebounds and 3.3 assists per game while shooting 56.9 percent from the field and 47.4 percent from three-point range.

The Connecticut Sun

DeWanna Bonner: The veteran forward is coming off a big game on July 4, where she scored 24 points on 10-of-16 shooting in a win over the Minnesota Lynx. Bonner can still score the ball with the best of them, averaging 16.6 points per game on 42.3 percent shooting from the field in 2024.

This is a difficult game to handicap with this spread for several reasons.

First off, the Dream have been awful in their last 10 games, ranking 11th out of 12 teams in net worth. So taking points – especially with all the injuries – is pretty risky. That being said, can we really bet 13.5 points with the Sun just a few games after losing to this Dream team at home?

I’m not convinced, especially since Connecticut is just 4-6 ATS at Mohegan Sun Arena in 2024.

So, I’m throwing out a draft player for Allisha Gray, who has been on fire over her last four games.

As I mentioned above, Gray is averaging nearly 20 points per game on extremely efficient shooting during that span, and she’s been a 3-point sniper all season.

Gray is averaging two three-pointers made per game in 2024 on 5.0 attempts per game (40.0%), and we’ve seen her make four, five, seven and three three-pointers in her last four games.

She’s hit that stalwart (1.5 3-pointers) in three of those four games, and I think she can do it again, even if the Suns aren’t conceding much this season. Gray scored 17 points on 2-of-4 3-pointers in their last meeting.

Pick: Allisha Gray OVER 1.5 3-pointers made
