Golden State Valkyries (26-11, second in the West) enter as heavy favorites against the struggling Connecticut Sun (10-27) on August 26 at Mohegan Sun Arena. The Valkyries have dominated the season series with two decisive victories, including a 79-64 road win in July, while boasting superior offensive efficiency, defensive metrics, and recent form highlighted by Monday’s 80-66 upset of the top-seeded Minnesota Lynx. Connecticut’s depleted frontcourt, with Brittney Griner and Olivia Nelson-Ododa sidelined by knee issues, compounds their league-worst record and poor home results. The Valkyries face a short turnaround on a road back-to-back before Thursday’s matchup against the New York Liberty, but their depth and momentum position them strongly to extend their edge in this non-conference contest.
