The Aces are hosting the Fever in a do-or-die Game 5 on Tuesday, with the winner advancing to the WNBA Finals to face the Mercury. Below, I have featured two of my favorite WNBA player prop bets for this contest on DraftKings Sportsbook.
Top WNBA Prop Bets on DraftKings Sportsbook
Chelsea Gray 17+ Points and Assists (-110)
Gray is a two-time WNBA champion and a former Finals MVP that knows how to elevate her game in the biggest moments. In Game 4 this past Sunday, Gray logged a playoff-high 37.4 minutes en route to 12 points and nine assists. The veteran has reached 17 PA in four of her past five starts and she has posted at least 17 PA in four of her seven matchups with Indiana this season.
Gray is leading the Aces with a huge 41.3% assist percentage this postseason and like she did in Game 4, Gray should barely leave the floor in Game 5 with the season on the line. With the massive role, the guard should have no trouble reaching 17 PA.
Aliyah Boston U 14.5 Points (-120)
Boston went off for 24 points in Game 4, but we shouldn’t expect this type of performance from the center in Game 5, with this contest on the road in Las Vegas. Boston’s home/away splits have been dramatic this season, with her averaging 12.9 PPG on the road, which is a big drop from the 16.6 PPG she is averaging at home. Boston is only averaging 11.5 PPG in her last 10 road starts and she has only topped 14.5 points in one of these 10 contests.
The Aces have been a much better defense at home this postseason and both Las Vegas and Indiana’s defensive intensity should be heightened in this do-or-die Game 5. This could be a low-scoring affair and Boston is a great bet to fall short of 14.5 points in this situation.
