The Las Vegas Aces (17-11) and Chicago Sky (11-17) meet Sunday at Wintrust Arena. Tip-off is scheduled for noon ET (CBS). Let’s analyze FanDuel Sportsbook’s lines around the Aces vs. Sky odds, and make our expert WNBA picks and predictions.
Season series: Tied 1-1
The Aces are reeling after losing 2 straight to the Minnesota Lynx and 4 of 5 — including one to the Sky 93-85 in Chicago July 16. C A’ja Wilson returned from the Olympic break in quiet fashion with 15-9-6 (p/r/a) Wednesday and posted 24-7-3 Friday. G Kelsey Plum had just 11 points while hitting two 3-pointers Friday, and they need her secondary scoring.
The Sun nearly completed the upset over the Connecticut Sun Friday as they fell 82-80. F Angel Reese continues to be a beast in the middle with 13 points and 20 boards. She’s averaging 14.3 points and 16.5 boards in 4 games since returning from the Olympic break. The Sky upended the Aces 93-85 right before the All-Star break as G Chennedy Carter had 34 points

Aces at Sky picks and predictions
Prediction
Sky 87, Aces 85
Moneyline
I don’t like what I have seen from Vegas since the month-long break. They clearly aren’t on the same page, and Chicago may have taken advantage of that in the July 16 game before the All-Star break.
Let’s go big or go home and bet on the Sky to do the same thing — this time on their home court. Take the SKY +265.
Against the spread
Even if Chicago can’t put the nail in the coffin, I still like it catching 7.5 here. Vegas is just 2-8 ATS in its last 10. Chicago is 2-2 ATS since the break, but those 2 defeats were blowouts by the Phoenix Mercury.
Take the SKY +7.5 (-110).

Over/Under
The Sky are 5-5 O/U in their last 10 and 2-2 since the break. Vegas is 4-6 O/U in its last 10 and 1-3 since the break. The final scores of the earlier meetings were 93-85 and 95-83.
We’re going OVER 166.5 (-110).
