Sunday’s Best WNBA Player Props & Bets
(Odds courtesy of FanDuel Sportsbook)
Indiana Fever vs. Connecticut Sun
Boston is one of the best rebounders in the league with a season average of 8.2. She pulled down nine the other night vs. Washington and has gone over this total in nine of her last 11 games. However, in three games vs. the Sun, she is averaging 6.7. But after losing two in a row at home and four of their last five, there's going to be a fire lit under the Fever today.
Boston will take advantage of playing a Sun team that gives up 36+ rebounds per game.
Pick: Aliyah Boston Over 7.5 Rebounds (-118)
Los Angeles Sparks vs. Washington Mystics
If you only want to go with one, take Hamby's prop. LA has scored a ridiculous 93.3 ppg since the break, and she is averaging 19. In the Sparks' two prior games vs. Washington, she scored 26 and 24 points. Hamby has gone over this total in four of her last five games and seven of her last ten.
Plum has been an offensive juggernaut for the Sparks this season and a big part of their offensive surge following the break (20.5 ppg). She's gone over the listed total in eight of her last ten games. However, she only scored 11 points against the Mystics in Washington (finished under this total with 22).
Picks: Dearica Hamby Over 16.5 Points (-116), Kelsey Plum Over 28.5 Pts + Reb + Ast (-102)
Dallas Wings vs. Las Vegas Aces
Bueckers scored 16 vs. the Aces in Vegas in June and 20 at home right before the break. But she has cleared this total in five of her last seven games. However, she has averaged 17 ppg on the road since the break. I see value in the over at plus money odds, but proceed with caution.
Wilson put up 37 and 10 vs. the Wings in late July, but only had 14 and 10 in a game before the break. But Wilson has stepped up her game in recent weeks to get her team back to the playoffs, averaging 21 ppg and 13.2 rebounds at home. She's had 16+ rebounds in three straight and 27+ points in four of her last five, going over this total in three of her last four.
Picks: Paige Bueckers Over 19.5 Pts (+100), A'ja Wilson Over 35.5 Pts + Reb (-114)
Phoenix Mercury vs. Seattle Storm
The data screams "take the over" for this one with Magbegor hitting the over in 12 of her last 15 games; she is averaging 8.1 ppg since the break. But in three games vs. Phoenix, she scored two, six, and four. Alyssa Thomas will dominate the paint and keep Magbegor in check. Take the under.
Pick: Ezi Magbegor Under 7.5 Points (-122)
Atlanta Dream vs. Golden State Valkyries
Atlanta attempts the second most threes in the league (27.5 per game); teams attempt more vs. Golden State than any other team (27.8 per game), making 8.9 (tied for second most). Howard made three of eight attempts in her only game vs. Golden State; Gray, 2-6 and 3-7. The Valkyries have a solid defense, but I like the value in both of these props as Gray and Howard try to make it rain from behind the arc.
Picks: Allisha Gray Over 2.5 Made Threes (+124), Rhyne Howard Over 2.4 Made Threes (+110)
