Sunday's Best WNBA First Basket Scorer Bets
(Odds courtesy of FanDuel Sportsbook)
Dallas Wings vs. Toronto Tempo
Paige Bueckers has four First Baskets in 19 games this season, which is good for a 21.1% cash rate. She has also scored first in two of her last seven games and three in her last 12.
Despite winning the tip and earning the first possession just 20% of the time, they have scored the first points in 65% of games (13-of-20).
Bueckers has as many First Baskets this season as bigs A'ja Wilson and Kamilla Cardoso and more than everyone else but Kelsey Mitchell (5) and Nneka Ogwumike (5). Somehow, she is still returning +500. Wild value, but like I always say: Vegas' problem, not ours. Bet accordingly.
Pick: Paige Bueckers (+500)
