After easing us into the week with a pair of games Monday night, the WNBA gives us four tonight with a pair at 7:30 p.m. EST and two more getting underway at 10 p.m. EST. Four games means, of course, lots of great WNBA player props to think about betting on tonight.
The following are my top WNBA Player Props picks for each of tonight's games:

Connecticut Storm vs. Atlanta Dream
Griner went under this number in 31 of 42 games last season, but in her first four with the Sun, she has gone over it in three of the four she's played in. But unlike those games, she'll be facing one of the top defenses in the league. Atlanta does not have the best defense in the paint, but they'll be able to contain Griner.
Chicago Sky vs. Washington Mystics
Stevens averaged 12.8 points and 8.0 rebounds per game last season for the Sparks. But this season, after getting a late start because of an injury, she hasn't done much. She has played in three games, starting two. Stevens has yet to play for more than 18 minutes and has not gone over this total. A breakout against a poor Washington defense is possible, but I wouldn't count on it, as she may not log enough time to go over this total even if she looks good.
Portland Fire vs. Golden State Valkyries
Golden State leads the league in 3-point field goal percentage, attempts, and made shots this season. Salaun and Gabby Williams lead the team with 2.4 made 3-pointers per game (6.6 attempts for Salaun and 5.5 attempts per game for Williams).
Portland's perimeter defense is not bad, but I wouldn't call it good either, with teams averaging just under eight made threes per game allowed. Salaun opened the season making four and five in the first two games and had three in each of the last two games. If this prop had minus money odds, I'd say to pass on it. But at +154, it is absolutely a solid value play.
Las Vegas Aces vs. Los Angeles Sparks
Part of me wants to take the under at +100 because of the disaster of a game she had her last time out (two points, four rebounds, and three assists in 18 minutes vs. Connecticut). But she has scored over this total in five of the seven games she played double-digit minutes in (she only played eight against Vegas in the Sparks opener and did not score).
When these two teams played on May 23, she scored 16 points and pulled down eight boards in 24 minutes. Vegas has not been playing great defense lately (10th in points allowed, 87.8 per game). As long as she gets close to 20 minutes, she'll go over this total.
