On the other hand, Chris Koclanes went with his usual starting five featuring Paige Bueckers, DiJonai Carrington, Arike Ogunbowale, Myisha Hines-Allen and NaLyssa Smith.

Things were pretty close in the first quarter, with the Dallas Wings and Connecticut Sun exchanging leads. However, the momentum swung in the favor of the Wings, in large part due to Paige Bueckers making her presence felt with her playmaking and scoring.

The Sun tried their best to make a comeback in the third quarter, but the Wings kept them at bay. The visitors didn't let up and even padded their lead in the final period to earn an easy victory.

Dallas will carry the momentum on Thursday, when they visit Angel Reese and the Chicago Sky, who are looking for their first win of the season. The Sun, on the other hand, will try to bounce back on Friday, when they take on the Caitlin Clark-less Indiana Fever at the Gainbridge Fieldhouse.
