There’s only three games in the WNBA tonight, tipping off at 7 PM EST with the Sparks at Tempo. The Liberty will visit the Storm at 10 PM, while the Wings will visit the Aces at the same time.
There are plenty of opportunities to get involved in the action this evening. One of the more unique features on DraftKings this year is Pick6 Fantasy Basketball!
This article will look at my top Pick6 plays for tonight’s slate. We simply choose whether a player will record more or less of the set statistic. Here are my favorite plays for tonight’s action.
Jonquel Jones More than 25.5 Pts + Rebs + Ast
Jones’ season average is hanging around this number already, and this matchup is particularly friendly on the glass. Seattle has been one of the better PRA environments in the league, and it is also allowing one of the highest rebound totals on the board. That matters more than just chasing points, because Jones can get there with a balanced line instead of needing a big scoring night. With Ezi Magbegor out for Seattle, we’re banking on Jones’ size, rebounding role, and steady minutes carrying her over 25.5 PRA.
Paige Bueckers More than 28.5 Pts + Rebs + Ast
Bueckers makes sense at 28.5 PRA. Las Vegas does not give up assists easily, which is why the PRA line is the better angle than taking her assists straight up. Bueckers is already averaging slightly above this number, and Dallas still needs her on the ball with Odyssey Sims out. Bueckers is at 29.3 on the season, so we definitely don’t need anything crazy happening tonight for her to reach her season-average PRA against the Aces.
Nneka Ogwumike More than 18.5 points
With Kelsey Plum out, we have an opportunity here to get some nice value on Ogwumike. Plum is LA’s top scorer and a major half-court creator.
Toronto is also the best points matchup on the board, allowing the most points per game in the WNBA, and the Tempo are short-handed in the backcourt with Brittney Sykes and Kiki Rice out. Nneka is also coming off a 24-point game against New York, and this is a reasonable spot for the Sparks to lean on her as a backup scoring option to fill in Plum’s large shoes.
