Thursday’s Best WNBA Player Prop Picks
(Odds courtesy of DraftKings Sportsbook)
Satou Sabally Over 19.5 Points (-110)
After a long-awaited arrival, Satou Sabally has finally graced the court for the Wings. A shoulder injury forced her to miss most of the 2024 campaign, leaving the team without one of their most qualified scoring options.
Sabally has scored 20 points or more in each of the two contests played since returning. This includes a 24-point performance against the Liberty on Tuesday where she knocked down five three-pointers on eight attempts.
Since rejoining the team, the Dallas forward is averaging 22 points on 45% shooting from the field, including an eye-popping 57% from beyond the arc on 14 attempts.
The possibility of this contest being a one-sided affair does cause some reluctance. However, in the 20-point loss to the Liberty on Tuesday, Sabally was able to see 36 minutes of playing time.
Breanna Stewart Over 1.5 Three-Pointers (+105)
Stewie gets the opportunity to follow up on a fantastic outing against the Wings two nights ago, where the New York forward scored 26 points, successfully knocking down three baskets from beyond the arc.
Something has certainly awoken within Breanna Stewart since the All-Star game, which has carried into the post-Olympic break portion of the season. In the last four contests, she is averaging 25.5 points per game on 47% shooting from the field.
In these stretch of contests, the Gold Medal winner has successfully drained 10 three-pointers. In three-of-four games, she made at least three shots from deep.
Dallas is allowing 7.7 three-pointers per game on 35% shooting on the season. If Stewart can repeat the 30+ minutes of floor time, this looks like a fantastic spot to clear 2.5 three-pointers.
Jonquel Jones Over 9.5 Rebounds (-120)
Jonquel Jones seems to be on a bit of a rebounding tear as of late. Tonight she faces a Dallas team who hasn't proven to be one of the most efficient teams in regards to field-goal percentage.
Over the last two games, Jones has pulled down an average of 14.5 rebounds, including 12 rebounds against the Wings on Tuesday, while playing 30 minutes. The veteran forward has successfully grabbed more than 9.5 boards in 14-of-28 games and in six of the last 10 games.
Dallas attempts over 69 shots per contest, while only making 44% of those attempts from the field, and 32.7% from three-point distance. The Wings play at the third-fastest pace in the WNBA, meaning there should be no shortage of rebounding opportunities for Jones.
As long as this contest can stay somewhat competitive, the New York forward has an excellent chance to clear 9.5 rebounds tonight.
