Best WNBA Prop Bets 2024 09 06 Wings Satou Sabally

 Dallas Wings vs. Atlanta Dream

  • Location: Gateway Center in College Park, GA

  • Game Time & Date: 7:30 p.m. ET on Friday, September 6

  • Coverage: ION

  • Point Spread: -2.5

Satou Sabally, O/U 18.5 Points at -102/-128 at FanDuel

Sabally will be looking to bounce back after an off night vs. the Mystics on Tuesday (12 points, eight rebounds,  five assists). In her last eight games, she’s gone over 18.5 points in five and in just two of her previous three.

Atlanta has a decent defense and may be more motivated since they are on the verge of a playoff berth. We are not confident in this pick, but we’re leaning toward the UNDER.

Rhyne Howard, O/U 2.5 Made Threes at -182/+136 at FanDuel

  • To Make 4+ three-pointers at +142

Howard is coming off a 31-point night vs. the Mercury that included six three-pointers. Her nightly point total has ranged from a high of 31 to a low of 12 (twice), but one thing has remained relatively consistent. Howard has hit 3+ three-pointers in seven of her last nine games (4+ in five).

Dallas has been playing excellently on the offensive side of the court lately but not on the defensive side. Howard will not hesitate to make it rain from deep and will hit at least three.

Las Vegas Aces vs. Connecticut Sun

  • Location: Mohegan Sun Arena in Uncasville, CT

  • Game Time & Date: 7:30 p.m. ET on Friday, September 6

  • Coverage: ION

  • Point Spread: Aces -1.5

A’ja Wilson, O/U 27.5 Points at -102/-128 at FanDuel

  • O/U 12.5 Rebounds at -106/-125

Regarding Wilson’s props, it is hard to rationalize even considering the UNDER. She’s averaged 28.4 points per game since the break. But the Sun do have a tremendous defense. If anyone could slow her down, it would be them. Back in June vs. the Sun in Vegas, she scored 26 points and pulled down 16 boards.

Wilson has been playing at a different level since the break; in her last four games, she’s scored 30, 41, 26, and 42. We don’t love it, but we’re leaning towards the OVER. As for her rebounds, she’s had a few games since the break where she had UNDER 12.5. 

But she’s gone OVER 12.5 in her last three and had 16 vs. the Sun in June. Take the OVER.

Marina Mabrey, O/U 12.5 Points at -104/-125 at FanDuel

Since getting traded to the team, Mabrey has been a solid addition to the Sun’s lineup. Since the break, she’s averaged 14 points per game and had five in a row where she scored 15+ points in each. But then Mabrey only had two her last time out vs. Seattle. 

However, she only played 14 minutes.

We are not sure why Maybrey only had 14 minutes; there is no injury news online. We’re going to look at that game as an isolated incident. Vegas doesn’t play defense; take the OVER.

Lynx vs. Fever

  • Location: Gainbridge Fieldhouse in Indianapolis, IN

  • Game Time & Date: 7:30 p.m. ET on Friday, September 6

  • Coverage: ION

  • Point Spread: Lynx -2.5

Kelsey Mitchell, O/U 20.5 Points at -120/-108 at FanDuel

  • O/U 2.5 Made Threes at -136/+102

Mitchell has been one of the hottest scorers in the WNBA since the break (25.6 points per game), second to A’ja Wilson (28.4). She’s hitting over 50% of her shots and 44.8% of her three-pointers. After scoring 18 vs. the Sparks, her first game since the break under 20, we expect her to have some additional motivation.

Minnesota has the second-best defense in the game and is tough on perimeter shooters. But Mitcazy about the odds, but with the roll she and the Fever are on, there’s a good chance she hitshell and the Fever will not get stopped at home. She’ll score 21+ points in this game. As for her three-pointers, she only made two vs. the Sparks but has made 3+ in six of her last eight games.

We are not crazy about the odds, but with the roll she and the Fever are on, there’s a good chance she hits three.

Caitlin Clark,  O/U 20.5 Points at -120/-108 at FanDuel

  • O/U 3.5 Made Threes at +140/-188

Caitlin Clark has been a different player since this break. Before it, she averaged 17.1 points per game and was only hitting 32.7% of her three-pointers (2.7 per game). Since the break, she’s scored 24.5 ppg (third in the league), hit 38.8% of her threes, and is averaging just under four per game.

Minnesota has a solid defense, and the Lynx are playing well - but so are the Fever. Clark cleared 20.5 points when they played in Minneapolis a few days ago and will do so again at home. As for her three-pointers, she’s hit 4+ in four of her last five games. The one she missed - vs. the Lynx.

This one could either way, but there is no value in taking the UNDER. So, if you’re going to put something down, take the plus money odds and bet the OVER.   

Napheesa Collier, O/U 19.5 Points at -128/-102 at FanDuel

Collier is averaging 20.4 points per game this season and 21.5 since the break. However, after putting up 31 on the Fever on Aug. 24 in Minneapolis, she’s been cold, scoring just 12, 17, and 15 against unimpressive defenses. 

Will the cold streak continue, or will it be business as usual for Collier in Indianapolis? She has been a solid player for the Lynx this season and is a big reason why they are contenders. While the last three games are concerning, we are leaning towards the OVER.

Los Angeles Sparks vs. Chicago Sky

  • Location: Wintrust Arena in Chicago, IL

  • Game Time & Date: 7:30 p.m. ET on Friday, September 6

  • Coverage: ION

  • Point Spread: Sky -5.5

Angel Reese, O/U 13.5 Points at +100/-130 at FanDuel

  • O/U 14.5 Rebounds at +104/-138

Reese has average a respectable 13.3 points per game this season. She’s been more reliable on the scoreboard since the break, scoring double digits in eight of nine games (averaging 12.7 ppg). But we feel good about taking the OVER with the Sparks playing as poorly as they have been.

Pulling down 14.5+ rebounds is a big ask, but Reese has proven she is up to the task on any night. Since the break, she’s recorded 14.5+ in six of nine games, including her last two. If the OVER did not have plus-money odds, we’d say pass; the risk is not worth the reward. But since it does, we’re taking the OVER.

Dearica Hamby, O/U 8.5 Rebounds at -138/+104 at FanDuel

Hamby’s stats have been all over the place since the break. In regard to her rebounding, she’s had four games with double-digit boards, four with 7-9, and one with just three. She leads the team with an average of 9.7 per game, but she’s averaged 8.8 since the break.

We are leaning toward the UNDER for one reason - Angel Reese. If there wasn’t a ball hawk like her on the court, this one could go either way. But since Reese will likely dominate the boards, we’re leaning toward the UNDER.
