Sunday’s Best 2026 FIBA Women's Basketball World Cup Parlay
(Odds courtesy of DraftKings Sportsbook)
Leg #1: France +5.5 (+120)
We made our stance clear in our best bets article: We do not foresee Team USA having the chemistry, cohesion and efficiency to defeat the tournament’s best team. France continues to pile on the points, while smothering their opponents on the defensive end. Team USA matches France’s depth, but they don’t know how to properly utilize a stacked bench.
Sadly, the rotations and inefficiencies in shooting will be the undoing of Team USA against France. Taking the points at +5.5 returns a plus profit while giving you a little insurance in case Team USA finally realizes they should be dominating every game. France turned Germany over on 25 possessions, and can easily put up 20 points off turnovers alone.
Leg #2: France Total Team 75+ Points (-120)
France has not scored fewer than 80 points in any game so far in the tournament. The French team is knocking down over 51% of its field-goal attempts and 44% of its attempts from beyond the perimeter - the best mark of any team. France is only attempting 15 free throws per game. If they start to attack the rim more in this contest, France will easily score at least 75 points.
Team USA does have the defense to limit France’s scoring. That said, France and Team USA will push the pace enough to help France score 75 points, even with a few failed attempts. As previously stated, turnovers could play a major role in this contest as well. It's going to take a complete meltdown of epic proportion for France to fall below 75 points in this contest.
Leg #3: Germany +5.5 (-105)
Tough way to end two fantastic runs for the German and Spain squads. Neither team really had much to offer in the second half in the semifinals. In the case of Germany, the wheels fell off as soon as the second quarter started. By the end of its game versus Team USA, Spain looked completely spent. They fought valiantly for a time, until things slowly began to unravel.
Germany has much more to play for in this contest, with the home crowd behind them. The WNBA players on Spain may be more inclined to start looking ahead to the last four games of the season. Given where the tournament is being held, Germany cannot mail it in or choose to have their bench play the contest, while starters are on the floor sparingly.
Germany has already suffered two losses in front of their home crowd; we doubt they want to make it three if they can avoid it. We expect a bit more fight from the German team than the sportsbooks suggest. We will gladly take the points to close out our parlay.
Parlay Odds: +687
