Three games are scheduled across today’s WNBA slate. The action will kick off at 3:00 p.m. ET as the Aces play the Valkyries. One of the more unique features on DraftKings this year is Pick6 Fantasy Basketball!
This article will examine my top Pick6 plays for today’s action, 6/7/25. You simply choose whether each set statistic will be more or less than the set number. With the stage set, here are my favorite picks on the WNBA slate.
A’ja Wilson More Than 39.5 Points + Rebounds + Assists
What else can be said about the M’VP? While the Aces are adjusting to some offseason turnover, Wilson stays the same. The three-time MVP is averaging 22.8 points, 10.5 rebounds, 4.2 assists, 2.3 steals, and 2.7 blocks. It’s an absurd statline and business as usual for the best player in the W.
This Valkyries expansion squad, namely Monique Billings and Temi Fagbenle, has some good frontcourt size and athleticism. But Wilson is averaging 37.5 combined P/R/A so far, and I don’t think a meager two-point boost is enough. Against a team that runs a lot of zone (a defensive coverage that A’ja was created to destroy) and struggles to score in general, I’m counting on A’ja to be in prime M’VP form for this matinee game.
Satou Sabally Less Than 31.5 Points + Rebounds + Assists
If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it.
Don’t get me wrong: I love Satou Sabally’s game. She’s been one of the breakout players of the young season in her first season with the Mercury. Across her first seven games, Sabally posted averages of 21.3 points, 8.1 rebounds, and 2.4 assists. But over the last two, that’s dropped a tad to 17.5 points, 7.5 rebounds, and 3.5 assists.
In my mind, this is no coincidence that her production is dropping without Alyssa Thomas. She’s getting more offensive responsibility, and one would think that leads to more production. Thomas is the kind of player that makes everyone better, and Sabally is suffering from her absence.
Nobody can fault her for not going off against an elite Lynx defense two games ago, but she went under her P/R/A again in the last matchup against an expansion Valkyries team. That number has come down some for this clash with the Storm, but she’s once again going to face an elite defense. Ezi Magbegor, Nneka Ogwumike, and Gabby Williams will be all over Sabally without sufficient offensive outlets for Phoenix. I’m taking the under for a third straight matchup.
Kelsey Mitchell More Than 20.5 Points
It’s been tough going for Kelsey Mitchell as of late. The former All-Star has been asked to shoulder the offensive load in Caitlin Clark’s absence. On top of that, Mitchell has been playing through a broken middle finger that didn’t heal properly in the offseason. It’s led to tough results so far. Mitchell is averaging 17 points per game without Clark this year but on 33% shooting from the field.
The good news is that things perked up in the last game, scoring 24 against a tough Mystics defensive backcourt. She made 7-of-14 shots and drew 10 free throws as well. Clark will remain out of the lineup Saturday, so it will be another night of heavy usage for the Fever guard. Against a Sky defensive backcourt nowhere near Washington’s talent, I’m counting on Mitchell to get above 20 points for the second game in a row.
