Fever vs Sky Predictions, Picks, Odds 6-23

Indiana Fever, on a winning streak, face Chicago Sky as underdogs. WNBA odds doubt Caitlin Clark. My best bet: Sky -2.

The Indiana Fever are currently riding a four-game winning streak, but they are considered underdogs against the Chicago Sky on June 23. Despite their recent success, WNBA odds are doubting Caitlin Clark and the Fever, especially after they defeated the Sky by eight points just a week ago.

In my analysis, I agree with the doubt surrounding the Fever and predict that the Sky will cover the spread of -2 points. Although Indiana has been performing well lately, winning four straight games, they still have the worst defense in the WNBA. On the other hand, Chicago has struggled recently, losing four consecutive games before their recent victory over the Dallas Wings.

The Sky rank sixth in the WNBA in net rating, which is significantly better than the Fever's league-worst net rating. Despite Indiana's recent success, their defensive struggles make it difficult to have confidence in them. The spread for this game is reasonable, considering the recent performances of both teams.

Caitlin Clark's performance will be crucial in this matchup, especially against a tough Chicago defense. Although she has been shooting well from deep during the winning streak, the Sky may adjust their defensive strategy to limit her three-point attempts. Combining the Under on Clark's made threes with the game's Over 171 points could be a profitable same-game parlay.

It's important to consider the Fever's betting trends before their recent surge, as they were struggling to cover the spread earlier in the season. Overall, the Sky seem like the safer bet in this matchup, given their defensive prowess and recent improvement in form.
