Sun surge into playoffs against Wings with momentum
The Connecticut Sun answered a double-digit loss to the Dallas Wings last month by winning 11 of their final 14 games during the regular season.
That late surge in the standings helped the Sun earn the third seed and home-court advantage in their first-round series. That best-of-three set begins with Game 1 on Thursday when they host the sixth-seeded Wings in Uncasville, Conn.
Dallas, however, won two of three encounters against Connecticut during the regular season, including an 82-71 decision on July 5.
Sun guard Natisha Hiedeman isn’t fazed by that, however. She said the team bonded as it overcame injuries, COVID-19-related absences and other potential pitfalls.
