Friday’s Best WNBA Player Prop Bets
(Odds courtesy of FanDuel Sportsbook)
Kamilla Cardoso 9+ Alt Rebounds (-115)
The rookie out of South Carolina is coming off back-to-back 10+ rebound performances, with nine or more rebounds in the last 3-of-5 games. Indiana and Chicago combine for 43.5% shooting from the field, and 32.5% from three-point range. There should be no shortage of rebounding opportunities in this contest.
Kamilla Cardoso has grabbed at least 10 rebounds in 2-of-3 games against the Fever, having only played 18 minutes in their first matchup very early on in the season. Although Chicago is one of the most unpredictable teams in the WNBA, we do not expect such a limited amount of playing time tonight.
Caitlin Clark 20+ Alt Points (-125)
Caitlin Clark has emerged from the Olympic break firing on all cylinders, averaging 22.6 points on 45% shooting from the field, with 17 three-pointers. The Indiana guard has seen at least 36 minutes in each of the last five games, making this appear to be a fantastic spot to score at least 20 points against a gracious Chicago defense.
The Sky are conceding 81.3 points on the season while allowing opponents to sink 43.6% of attempts from the field. Chicago also allows 10.9 points scored via second-chance opportunities, 15.6 off of turnovers, and 15.6 points from the free-throw line.
Clark has clearly picked up the scoring since returning from the break. Having said that, the Iowa rookie has only cleared 20 points in 1-of-3 contests against the Sky. We simply do not feel a Chicago team that is currently on a four-game losing streak will find a way to keep the Fever guard under the suggested total.
Napheesa Collier Over 20.5 Points (-125)
Continuing on with players who have been nothing short of sensational since returning from the Olympic break, Napheesa Collier may be at the top of the mountain. After scoring at least 23 points in four straight games, the Minnesota forward fell short in her last contest only making five field-goals on 13 attempts for 13 points.
This evening, Collier faces a Dallas team that is allowing the most points per game in the WNBA, as well as the highest opponent field-goal percentage. Over 41 points scored against the Wings come via the paint, with 18.3 off of turnovers, and 11.5 from second-chance opportunities.
The forward for the Lynx has faced Dallas three times this season, scoring an average of 22.6 points on 48.9% shooting. As long as this contest can stay competitive into the fourth quarter, Collier appears to be in a fantastic spot to score at least 21 points.
Tina Charles 10+ Alt Rebounds (-120)
After recording the first triple-double in the history of the Atlanta Dream, Tina Charles matches up against a Las Vegas team who are not playing their best basketball by any means over the last six games, with only two wins over that span.
Charles only needed 26 minutes of playing time to pull down 12 boards in the last meeting against the Aces. Over the last five games, the Atlanta forward is averaging 34.8 minutes and 11.6 rebounds.
Las Vegas is allowing over 37.6 rebounds per game to opponents on the season, including 8.8 of the offensive variety. Atlanta owns the lowest team field-goal percentage in the WNBA, and over the last five games, that number has dipped even further.
Sabrina Ionescu Under 19.5 Points (-110)
The Oregon superstar has recently had a tough time finding the bottom of the net. Over the last three games, Sabrina Ionescu is averaging an uncharacteristic 28.6% from the field, and 22.7% from beyond the arc.
Tonight the Liberty guard faces a Seattle team that is only allowing 78.2 points per game, on 42% shooting. The Storm are also only giving up 6.9 three-pointers while holding opponents to 32%.
When playing on the road, Ionescu averages 18.9 points, as opposed to 19.8 at home. The statistic that stands out most is the 7% three-point percentage dip away from Brooklyn. The New York guard will most certainly break out of the current slump, however, the opponent makes it difficult to feel confident that this will be the contest she does so.
