Napheesa Collier is stampeding her way to the WNBA MVP and, hopefully, her first championship with the Minnesota Lynx. It seems the only thing that can stop her is injury.
Collier missed their last game with a low back injury. Fortunately, the team still won, but it’s an area of concern. The Lynx have listed her as questionable for Tuesday’s game against the Washington Mystics. If she plays, this game should be another feather in her award-winning cap.
Collier leads the league in scoring at 24.4 points per game. She’s also seventh in rebounds (8.5), sixth in steals (1.8), and fifth in blocks (1.5). Only one player has outdone her in the last three categories: A’ja Wilson. It’s no wonder Collier is favored to win the MVP and is second in DPOY odds.
The Lynx are six-point favorites on the road and are -278 on the moneyline on DraftKings Sportsbook. The total is set at 158 points. Let’s look at the best bets and predictions for this contest.
Best Napheesa Collier Prop Bet
35+ Points + Rebounds + Assists (+100)
Few can stand in the way of Collier this season. The Washington Mystics are not one of the teams that can.
Sure, Kiki Iriafen is a competitive defender, and one heck of a rebounder, but that won’t be enough. She’s well on her way to her first MVP and this mediocre Mystics squad won’t stop her. I’m counting on a big return to the lineup for Phee and plenty of stats to come with it.
