With the NBA and NHL in the rearview mirror, the WNBA takes over, alongside MLB (and the World Cup) as the main sporting events to focus on. Summer is here. The sun is shining. Life is good. I'll be here every Monday to provide the best WNBA player props. The WNBA is one of the best leagues to make money on, and that's exactly what I'm here to do.

Monday’s Best WNBA Player Props & Bets
Last time: 1-2 | Season: 7-4
Laura Juskaite Over 12.5 Points + Rebounds (-115 at Fanatics Sportsbook)
In Atlanta, the Dream host the Toronto Tempo as 13.5-point favorites, with the total at 177.5 points. Despite the Dream being such a big favorite, I'm still going the other way with this one.
Laura Juskaite has just returned for the last seven games, and she's only starting to get more involved. She crushed against Indiana, scoring 19 points. The BettingPros Prop Bet Cheat Sheet projects this line closer to 16, and I trust the cheat sheet with my life. If you haven't taken advantage of it, the cheat sheet is the best tool for all your betting needs.
Caitlin Clark Over 20.5 Points (-122 at FanDuel Sportsbook)
I know it's very popular to bet on Caitlin Clark, and it feels like a soft play, but tonight is lining up for a rare occurrence where Clark is actually underpriced.
The Mercury comes into town as 5.5-point underdogs, and everything is lining up for the Fever. Clark has averaged 24 points a game at home this year compared to 18 on the road. She's healthy and back to playing full minutes, and she could put up a ceiling line against the Mercury defense.
No team allows more three-pointers than Phoenix. No team makes more three-pointers than the Indiana Fever. No player on the Fever takes more looks from deep than Caitlin Clark. The Fever is the fastest-paced team in the league, and their home-court advantage is as strong as anyone's in the league. This is a rare opportunity to bet the over on Clark. Take advantage.
Natisha Hiedeman Over 15.5 Points (-105 at bet365)
Finally, tonight we're heading out West, where the Seattle Storm hosts the Dallas Wings. On the surface, Dallas has been solid with the fifth-best defense in the league.
But on the road, it's a wildly different story. Away from home, Dallas' defense drops to 13th, and drops to 12th in offensive rebounds. This is a team that is night and day different depending on where they are playing, and sportsbooks don't reflect that.
Natisha Hiedeman is the Storm’s leading scorer. She's covered this line in five straight games and 10 of her last 15. Dallas actually paces up the Storm here, and Hiedeman performs better at home, too. Don't be afraid to take the over.
