The WNBA playoffs continue this evening with Game 2 of the WNBA Finals. The Valkyries lead the series 1-0. Thank you to everyone who followed along all year and made a little money doing so. The WNBA is one of the best leagues to make money on, and it's been a stream of successful seasons now. We hit a +200 prop last time out, nearly a month ago now, but it was still a winning day. Here are the best WNBA player props for Game 2 of the WNBA Finals.

Monday’s Best WNBA Player Props & Bets
Last time: 1-1 | Season: 21-12
Rhyne Howard Under 23.5 Points + Assists + Rebounds (-121 at Caesars Sportsbook)
We had a defensive drubbing last time out with both teams combining for only 132 points, and I expect we will see more of the same tonight. While I can't imagine Atlanta will shoot 16% from beyond the arc again, this Golden State team has fed on their defensive identity and plays at the slowest pace in the league by a lot.
Rhyne Howard went 3-of-14 from the field last time out and managed only 12 points and seven boards despite playing 38 minutes. She overperformed her seasonal averages in rebounding and assists, and still comfortably fell short of this line.
You have the league's best defense playing at the league's slowest pace, and this prop is still simply too high. Howard is solid, but I still expect this offense to flow through Angel Reese and Allisha Gray.
Veronica Burton Under 3.5 Rebounds (-127 at Kalshi)
On the other side, the biggest issue I expect Golden State to face is on the glass. Atlanta does dominate on the boards, and I don't imagine that will change tonight. The Northwestern product grabbed four rebounds in the series opener, but Veronica Burton has averaged around 3.5 per game all year, and there are a lot of mouths to feed in the paint.
Sure, there will be more misses given the strength of these two defenses, but there are still plenty of big bodies on both sides of the ball that will limit Burton's ability to snag long rebounds. She overperformed last time out to give this prop some weight, and I don't think we’ll see that again tonight.
