The Chicago Sky host the Connecticut Sun in one winner-take-all game left in the 2022 WNBA playoffs, and one question remains: Will the real best team in this semifinal series please stand up?
The two teams meet Thursday (8 p.m. ET, ESPN2) in a decisive Game 5 of a series many didn't expect to go this far. Chicago beat Connecticut 3-1 in the semifinals last season on the way to the WNBA title and then won all four regular-season matchups between the teams this year. If the Sun couldn't defeat the Sky once all season, could they really do it three times in the postseason?
