WNBA Player Props and Best Bets: Our Six Five Plays for Dream-Fever, Aces-Storm Elimination Night

No one was eliminated on Tuesday, but in a best-of-three series, two teams will definitely be eliminated tonight. With the end of their season on the line, we can probably expect the best from all teams, which should make for a good night to bet WNBA Player Props.

Indiana and Atlanta have had relatively low-scoring games, while the Storm and Aces have been putting up some points. What will they do tonight, and how should you bet? We’ve got a few ideas for you.

Here are some of our favorite prop bets from tonight’s games.

Atlanta Dream vs. Indiana Fever

Kelsey Mitchell, to Score 20+ Points (-124) at FanDuel

Mitchell had 27 points on Sunday in Game One in Atlanta, 19 points in Game Two in Indianapolis, and averaged 19.3 points per game vs. the Dream during the regular season. In the games in Atlanta, she had 17 and 11 points.

That, to me, screams for the UNDER. But Mitchell is a baller; if she feels like she needs to, she’ll put the team on her shoulders and try to win it herself (like she did in Game One when she took 18 shots). 

Because of that, I’m taking her to score 20+ points (better price than her O/U market).

Aliyah Boston, UNDER 22.5 Pts + Reb (-110) at FanDuel

This one hit in Game Two, so I’m going to back to this well for another drink. Boston had 15 points and five rebounds Tuesday night. I know what you’re thinking—what happened to her rebound numbers? Heck, she had 12 in Game One!

Yes, but she played for 34 minutes; in Game Two, she only played 22. If the idea was to keep her (and other players) fresher by making better use of a talented bench, it worked; they won. Will they take that path tonight? 

In the interest of a better game and the UNDER cashing for this prop, I hope so.

Rhyne Howard, OVER 2.5 Made Threes (-136) at FanDuel

• Alisha Gray, OVER 1.5 Made Threes (-130) at FanDuel

One of the many things that were off on Tuesday for the Dream was their three-point shooting (5-19 as a team). For some reason, Howard and Gray only took four shots each, with Gray hitting one. They averaged 9.8 and 5.9 three-point shots per game at home this season.

That's something they'll likely try to correct at home, in potentially the final game of the season. It helped them win Game One, after all. Take Howard if you just want to bet on one, since she is more likely to take more shots.

Las Vegas Aces vs. Seattle Storm

A’ja Wilson, OVER 38.5 Pts + Reb + Ast (-112 )at FanDuel

A solid argument can be made for the OVER and UNDER here. A’ja Wilson is arguably the best player in the WNBA, capable of going off on any given night, much like she did during the Aces’ 17-game winning streak the Storm ended Tuesday. But Seattle is also a solid defensive team.

Wilson has gone over this TOTAL in six of her last seven games and 11 of her last 15. In six games vs. the Storm, the OVER is 3-3. However, the OVER is 2-1 when playing at home. She will not let the home crowd down tonight.

Jackie Young, OVER 16.5 Points (+104) at FanDuel

Young averaged 16.5 points per game this season, scoring 18 in Game One and 25 in Game Two. She has gone OVER this TOTAL in five of her last six games and in four of six vs. the Storm, including the last four and all three home games vs. Seattle this season.

With their playoff lives on the line, I don’t think Young (and Wilson) will let fans down.
