Sunday's Best WNBA First Basket Scorer Bets
(Odds courtesy of DraftKings Sportsbook)
Washington Mystics vs. New York Liberty
Shakira Austin has four First Baskets in 11 games this season, which is good for a 36.4% cash rate. She has also scored first in three of her last six games.
No other player today, on either team, has more than two First Baskets or cash rates of greater than 15.4%, with both of New York’s Marine Johannes (+890) and Breanna Stewart (+455) each having two in 13 tries.
Austin has twice as many First Baskets this season as both Johannes and Stewart. That discrepancy makes it all the more wild that her return isn’t juiced below +400…yet. Take the value of getting nearly the same return for twice the results.
Pick: Shakira Austin (+414)
