Saturday's Best WNBA Picks & Bets (6/7)
Last Time: 1-0 | Season: 3-3 | Odds Courtesy of DraftKings Sportsbook
Chicago Sky at Indiana Fever
This game loses a lot of interest with Caitlin Clark still sidelined, but a mini-rivalry is building up that will make for interesting future matchups. The Fever are still about a three-point favorite at home, with the total near 168.
For me, it's hard to judge where these teams sit. The Sky's offense has been decent but their defense is atrocious, sitting dead last in the league. The Fever rank fourth offensively and defensively but without Clark, they are a much different team. Chicago offensively has shined in their last pair of games against the Wings but besides that, it's been a concerning start to the season.
When these teams opened the season against each other, Indiana clobbered the Sky into tomorrow. I don't expect the Fever to have such an efficient offensive output again and while the Sky should go past the 58 point benchmark they set for themselves in that season opener, I don't trust their offense much more here on the road. There are just too many points here for a team that will likely lean on their defense more with an offense that's taken a hit.
Pick: Under 168 Points (-110)
Las Vegas Aces at Golden State Valkyries
The other game I'll have a bet on today is the Las Vegas Aces taking on the Valkyries in Golden State. This will be my first official bet on the Valkyries so it's an exciting time for me personally. The Aces sit around a 12-point favorite with a total of 163.
The Valkyries’ record isn't impressive but they also haven't had the easiest schedule, facing the Liberty in back-to-back road games before facing the Lynx and then traveling to Phoenix. They've suffered a little bit of an unlucky draw so far.
Meanwhile, the Aces seem to still be finding their groove but it's a bit tough to tell with how few games they've played. Their losses have been blowouts and their wins have been close for the most part so that doesn't give me much confidence in their ability to cover a double-digit spread.
Golden State's offense has been a bit concerning but at home I feel a bit more confident in their ability to keep it close here. Vegas has the brand recognition at this point, but I still don't trust that this team has the gusto to continue backing. Let's go Golden State here.
Pick: Valkyries +12.5 (-108)
