WNBA Player Props and Predictions: Our Best Pick for Tonight’s Six-Game Slate

Last night, the WNBA treated fans to one of the highest-scoring games of the season. How is the league going to follow that up? Easy—with a six-game slate on Wednesday. I know what you’re thinking, “So many WNBA player props, so little time.”

With so many games and markets to choose from, I’m going to have to leave quite a few good ones on the table. But the goal, as always, is to present to you my best WNBA player props for the night.

Washington Mystics vs. Connecticut Sun

• Aneesah Morrow, to record a double-double at +150

Morrow has recorded a double-double in eight of the 13 games she has played in, but not in her last two. She has averaged 13.6 points and 11.2 rebounds per game at home. Washington can play decent defense on the road, but I wouldn’t count on it to slow Morrow down much, if at all.

New York Liberty vs. Chicago Sky

• Sabrina Ionescu, Under 13.5 Points at +100

When she is finally 100% and starts to play like it, she will blow this total away more often than not. However, since this will be just her third game of the season (be sure to check the injury report before betting), there will still be some rust.

Not only that, but the team will likely restrict her minutes as a precaution. She took only four shots in her return on Sunday. I’d expect her to take a few more this time, but I’m not counting on her accuracy at this point.

Dallas Wings vs. Golden State Valkyries

• Paige Bueckers, Under 18.5 Points at +100

Bueckers and the Dallas defense have been humming right along, but tonight, they face the second-best home defense in the WNBA. Golden State has been holding teams to 76.6 points per game when playing at home. She has gone over this total in seven of 14 games this season, but in only two of her last five.

Place a Bet on Dominique Malonga at FanDuel

Minnesota Lynx vs. Los Angeles Sparks

• Olivia Miles, Over 30.5 Pts + Reb + Ast at -106

I did not expect to go with this market, but after reviewing several, it began to stand out. While Miles is averaging 18.1 points, 5.0 rebounds, and 5.9 assists per game, she has gone over this total in six of 14 games. But five of those six have come in the last six games.

Against a lackluster Sparks defense, I like her chances of making six of the last seven.

Place a Bet on Kayla Thornton at FanDuel

Las Vegas Aces vs. Phoenix Mercury

• Alyssa Thomas, Under 15.5 Points at -106

Thomas has gone over this total in seven of 14 games so far this season (including the season opener vs. the Aces, in which she had 20 points) and is averaging 14.5 points per game. However, she went over it just once in Phoenix’s last seven games.

I’d feel better about this if the Aces had been playing better defense on the road (83.9 points per game allowed; sixth-best in the league). But Thomas has been more of a facilitator lately than a scoring threat.

Place a Bet on Flau'jae Johnson at FanDuel

Seattle Storm vs. Portland Fire

• Dominique Malonga, Over 14.5 Points at -110

Last year’s No. 2 overall pick is coming off a nine-point game, but it came against a very tough Golden State defense. Portland’s defense isn’t nearly as tough (87.3 points per game allowed at home; No. 9 in the league) and teams have averaged 36+ points per game in the paint against them.

Malonga scores about 61% of her points in the paint, and since the Fire doesn’t really have someone that can measure up, going over 14.5 points should be a piece of cake.
