It’s been a rough ride for the Sun this season, who underwent a major roster shakeup and are clearly feeling the growing pains. They arrived in Seattle on Friday with the league’s worst record and walked away with more of the same, another loss, this time 79-65 to the Storm. Connecticut has now dropped 11 of their last 12 and remains anchored at the bottom of the WNBA standings.

As for the Sparks, they’re trying to rebound from a frustrating 91-82 defeat at the hands of the Minnesota Lynx. LA fell behind thanks to a second-quarter collapse, getting outscored 28-14 in the frame. Despite the loss, Kelsey Plum turned in a solid effort with 17 points and a perfect 6-for-6 from the charity stripe. Turnovers, however, were the Achilles’ heel, Los Angeles coughed the ball up 22 times.

Los Angeles Sparks vs Connecticut Sun Team News & Key Performers

Los Angeles Sparks Team News

The Sparks are just 1-8 on their home floor this season and have lost seven of their last ten overall. Statistically, LA is a mixed bag. They’re middle-of-the-pack offensively, ranking 7th in points per game, and fare reasonably well in shooting efficiency, sitting fifth in overall field goal percentage and seventh from beyond the arc. They also rank seventh in threes made per game. However, their defensive metrics are more troubling.

The Sparks are last in scoring defense and opponent field goal percentage, and only slightly better when it comes to guarding the three. They sit 11th in scoring margin and 8th in rebounding differential, but rank second in turnover margin, offering a glimmer of hope.

Connecticut Sun Team News

Veteran center Tina Charles continues to shoulder much of the offensive load, putting up 20 points and grabbing 10 boards in Friday’s loss. She leads the Sun with 15.7 points per game on 40.7% shooting but has cooled off a bit recently, averaging just 12.2 points over her last five appearances.

Olivia Nelson-Ododa anchors the glass with a team-best 6.3 rebounds a night, good for 19th across the league. Saniya Rivers brings a defensive spark, leading Connecticut with 3.1 assists and 1.7 steals per game. Meanwhile, Marina Mabrey, Connecticut’s second-leading scorer at 15.2 PPG, remains sidelined with a knee injury and is not expected back anytime soon.
