Best WNBA Prop Bets for Friday, May 30

Kelsey Mitchell to Score 20+ Points

We got a glimpse of what the offensive game plan would be without Caitlin Clark in the lineup on Wednesday night—a whole lot of Kelsey Mitchell. It makes sense since she and Clark tied for the team lead in scoring last season (19.2 ppg).

Mitchell ended up scoring just 14 on the night, but she had an uncharacteristically bad day from the floor, shooting 4-16 (2-7 from three-point range). She’ll get back on track tonight against a mediocre Washington defense.

Kiki Iriafen, OVER 9.5 Rebounds

Iriafen only had eight her last time out (vs. Indiana); her second game as a pro without 10+ rebounds. However, she is still averaging 10.7 rebounds per game and will face a New York team expected to be without two key players tonight, Jonquel Jones and Nyara Sabally.

But even with them, she’d have a good shot at the OVER because the Liberty have struggled to keep forwards off the boards this season. Since Jones and Sabally will be out, I’m taking the OVER.

Sabrina Ionescu, UNDER 16.5 Points

Ionescu is coming off a brilliant 24-point night, so why do I think she’ll come back down to Earth tonight? Because she benefited from an exceptional night from three-point range, hitting six of 15 three-point attempts.

She hadn’t shot more than eight or made more than two this season. Her 24-point performance vs. Golden State was just her second game in five this season where she’s recorded 17+ points.

A’ja Wilson, OVER 11.5 Rebounds

After averaging 11.8 rebounds per game last season and then starting the year with 10+ in her first three games, it was a bit surprising when she only pulled down five boards in her last game (vs. Seattle). That has to be an isolated incident and not her new norm.

She’ll prove that tonight when she and the Aces take on the worst rebounding team in the WNBA (Sparks—30.7 rebounds per game).

Kayla McBride, UNDER 2.5 Made Threes

With only one game under her belt this season, we don’t have a lot of data to work with here. But in that game (vs. Seattle), she went 3-6 from behind the arc. However, Phoenix has been stingy on the perimeter, giving up a league-low six made three-pointers per game.

She’s a solid shooter, but with how the Phoenix defense has performed on the perimeter, I’m taking the UNDER.

Skylar Diggins, OVER 17.5 Points

Diggins has been getting the job done for the Dream this season with 18.8 points per game while shooting 45.5% from the field and 43.8% from three-point range. She has scored 18+ in four of five games this season and 20+ in her first three.

For some reason, she did not take nearly as many shots in the win vs. Las Vegas (4-9) and didn’t do much better her last time out vs. Minnesota (5-11). In the first three games this season, she took 14-16 shot attempts, making 6-8.

As long as she takes her shots (14+), she’ll get OVER 17.5 points.
