Best Paige Bueckers Prop Bets on DraftKings Sportsbook

Paige Bueckers O 16.5 Points (-110)

Bueckers will return Monday after being rested Sunday and the rookie phenom is a stellar bet to clear 16.5 points. Bueckers ranks eighth in the WNBA in scoring with 18.1 PPG while shooting 45% from the field and she has topped 16.5 points in 12 of her 20 starts. The UConn product’s role has been immense, with Bueckers handling a 23.1% usage rate and leading the Wings with 34.9 minutes per game, which ranks fourth in the league this season.

Tonight, Bueckers is at home and facing the Liberty, who rank third in defensive rating this season. However, New York will be without two-time MVP Breanna Stewart (knee), who is missing her first game of the season. The forward got hurt only three minutes into Saturday’s matchup with the Sparks and after Stewart exited, Los Angeles put up 101 points, tying their season-high. The Liberty own a 103.5 defensive rating with Stewart off the court this season, which would be the fourth-worst defensive rating in the WNBA if it were New York’s average for the season.

As you can see, Stewart missing is a massive hit to the Liberty’s defense and the well rested Bueckers, who hasn’t played since last Friday, should have a big scoring performance against New York on Monday.
