Sunday presents a two-game WNBA slate. The Liberty are hosting the Mystics and the Tempo are hosting the Dream. Below, I have featured three of my favorite WNBA player prop bets for these contests on DraftKings Sportsbook.
Top WNBA Prop Bets on DraftKings Sportsbook
Sonia Citron O 22.5 Points + Rebounds + Assists (-114)
While Citron is facing a Liberty defense that ranks fourth in rating this season, the increased role she should see with Kiki Iriafen (ankle) sidelined makes Citron a great bet for this over. Iriafen missed her first game of the season Friday vs. the Tempo and Citron was productive, posting 17 points, five rebounds and three assists in 34 minutes.
Citron hoisted up a season-high 16 shots with Iriafen inactive and with the forward off the floor this season, Citron’s usage rises 2.3 percentage points to 23.8%. Even with the Liberty’s stout defense on the other side, Citron should exceed this 22.5 PRA line.
Breanna Stewart U 19.5 Points (-118)
Stewart has been awesome this season, averaging 20.4 PPG on 44% shooting, and the two-time MVP is going against a Mystics’ defense that ranks ninth in rating this season. However, Washington likes to slow down the game, ranking 10th in pace and more importantly, Sabrina Ionescu (back) will be back in the lineup for the Liberty.
Ionescu is one of the most ball dominant players in the WNBA and in the one game she has been active for this season, Stewart only finished with 14 points vs. the Wings in 34 minutes. Stewart and Ionescu have played in 30 games together over the last two seasons and Stewart is 18.2 PPG in these contests. When sharing the floor with Ionescu the last two seasons, Stewart’s usage drops 1.0 percentage point to 25.7%. The UConn product has stayed under 19.5 points in four of her last six entering Sunday and Stewart should fall short of that number again vs. the Mystics.
Angel Reese O 14.5 Points (-123)
Reese has been terrific lately. The 24-year-old is fresh off a season-high 25 points vs. the Liberty on Thursday. Despite facing New York’s No.4 ranked defense, Reese shot 11-of-22 from the field. This marked the fourth time in her last six that Reese has scored 17+ points.
Over this six-game stretch, Reese is leading the Dream with a 25% usage rate and she is shooting 45.3% from the field. On the menu for Sunday is a matchup with the Tempo, who rank 11th in defensive rating and are allowing the most points in the paint this season. 65% of Reese’s points this season have come in the painted area and she should clear 14.5 points with ease in this spot.
