The Connecticut Sun will be part of the WNBA's great eight if they keep this up.
The Sun will face the New York Liberty on Tuesday in Bradenton, Fla., at IMG Academy in a WNBA regular-season game. Having won seven of their last 11 games, the Sun seemingly have put their disastrous start behind them and intend to secure one of the eight spots in the WNBA playoffs. Meanwhile the Liberty simply have failed to launch and are mired in last place in the WNBA standings.
Here's when and how to watch Sun versus Liberty.
