The Sun will host the Chicago Sky for the next two games of their WNBA playoffs semifinal series, which is tied 1-1. Game 3 is Sunday and the fourth game is Tuesday.
Chicago Sky
Connecticut went to Dallas in the first round and beat the Wings in the decisive Game 3 to advance to the semifinals. Instead of coming home, the Sun flew to Chicago to get ready for the series with the Sky. Connecticut won the opener before falling 85-77 in Wednesday's Game 2. Now, the team has had a chance to sleep in their own beds and will play in front of their home fans Sunday.
For the Sun to be successful, they'll have to figure out a way to slow down Candace Parker, who has been dominant on both ends of the court during the first two games of the series -- averaging 20.5 points, 11 rebounds, 4.5 blocks and 2.5 steals. "To just describe what she's been doing on the court, she's everywhere. Defense, offense. Off-court, she has been very vocal. I'm happy to be with her in this series because going against her is not fun, I think."Brionna Jones was honored as the league's Sixth Player of the Year on Thursday. She received 53 of 56 votes from a national media panel. Chicago forward Azura Stevens got two votes and Washington's Myisha Hines-Allen the other one.
