Thursday's Best WNBA Player Prop Picks
2026 Regular Season: 10-10-4 | Last: 0-0-2 | (Odds courtesy of DraftKings Sportsbook)
Kelsey Mitchell 25+ Points (-112)
Kelsey Mitchell is averaging 24.0 points per game this season and has scored 25+ in three straight games out of the All-Star Break and 11 of her last 13. She has also cashed this number in 14 of her last 18 contests, including seven of her last 11 at home.
Mitchell has topped 25 points in her last two games against the Aces and three of her last four. She even scored exactly 25 points her last time playing Vegas in Indianapolis on September 28, 2025.
Additionally, Mitchell has dominated the West of late. She has topped 26 points in 10 of her last 11 games against Western Conference opponents. There should be no shortage of points in this likely barn burner, so back Mitchy the Kid to shoot early and often on her way to another cash!
Megan DiLeo Over 1.5 Three-Pointers (-101)
The center formerly known as Megan Gustafson has drained multiple three-pointers in four of her last six games and eight of her last 12. In those 22 games, DiLeo is averaging 1.92 made threes, over half a basket higher than her season average of 1.3. She has cashed this prop in four of her last seven home games, including last time out on Sunday against the Sparks when she drained two.
Toronto's perimeter defense is ranked 13th and DiLeo already made two three-pointers against them on May 23 in The North.
