The Valkyries (11-12) are just 3-8 on the road, as they take on the Connecticut Sun (3-20), who look to end a four-game slide and improve on their 2-9 home record.
The Valkyries have not had a player score in double digits in any of the last four games. Tiffany Hayes, Janelle Salaun and Veronica Burton have each scored in double figures at least three times over that stretch, while Temi Fagbenle has been solid on the glass
Tina Charles topped 20 points in each of the last two games to lead the Sun in both outings. Bria Hartley and Saniya Rivers also reached the 20-point mark within the last three games. Additionally, Charles has hauled in double digits in rebounds in four of the last five games, while Aneesah Morrow has 20 boards over the last two games.

WNBA DFS Showdown Picks and Lineup Building Strategy
The Fever (13-12) hope to improve on their 5-6 road record, while the Sky (7-17) have dropped four in a row and own a 4-7 home record.
Kelsey Mitchell continues to shine on the offensive end, hitting the 20-point mark in 10 of the last 13 games, averaging 21.9 points on 50.2 percent shooting to lead the Fever over that span. Natasha Howard and Aliyah Boston have also been significantly impactful on both sides of the floor lately.
The Sky continue to lack consistency on the offensive end and have not had a player score more than 16 points in the last three games. They could be significantly hindered by injury trouble, especially if Angel Reese and Michaela Onyenwere remain out. In such a case, Kamilla Cardoso, Kia Nurse, Rachel Banham, and Rebecca Allen would be on the hook to step up.

The Aces (12-13) have dropped two in a row and head into Dallas with the goal of adding to their 5-9 road record. On the other hand, the Wings (7-18) are just 4-7 at home.
A'ja Wilson leads the Aces with team highs of 22.0 points, 9.0 rebounds, 1.6 steals and 2.3 blocks per game. She also topped 20 points in four straight games before finishing with 15 in the last outing. Jackie Young and Jewell Loyd are additional high-power scoring threats, while Chelsea Gray continues to shine in her role as a distributor.
The Wings are electing to rest a couple of key contributors, including their leading scorer, Paige Bueckers, which means Arike Ogunbowale will have room to take over on the offensive end. Luisa Geiselsoder and Haley Jones, and JJ Quinerly have also shown impressive flashes within the last few outings.

DeWanna Bonner, Satou Sabally, and Sami Whitcomb have also delivered notable scoring efforts recently. Additionally, Kahleah Copper continues to work back into rhythm and is capable of giving the squad a major boost.
The Mystics have been seeing balanced scoring, with at least three players scoring in double digits in 11 consecutive outings. Kiki Iriafen has been a force on the glass, with double digits in rebounds in two of the last five games, while Sonia Citron has led the team in assists in each of the last two outings.

Napheesa Collier and Courtney Williams each topped the 20-point mark to lead the Lynx in their last game. The squad also had five players score in double digits in the previous game. Collier, Williams, and Kayla McBride are the team's leading scorers, while Jessica Shepard and Alanna Smith join Collier and Williams as prominent figures on the glass.
