DraftKings WNBA Pick6 Fantasy Basketball Picks Today: Top Picks for 8/3/26

By: Bill Yin

There’s only one game on the slate tonight, with the Valkyries hosting the Tempo.

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.


Janelle Salaün More Than 12.5 Points

Toronto has seen Janelle Salaün twice this season, and they have still not found an answer for her scoring. Salaün dropped 26 points in the first meeting and followed it with 24 on Sunday, combining for nine 3-pointers and clearing this line by double digits both times. Her second WNBA season has been a clear step forward, as she is averaging 12.8 PPG while shooting a highly efficient 39.4% from beyond the arc. She has produced that scoring despite coming off the bench, and her 2.5 made 3-pointers per game rank eighth in the league. We are banking on her staying aggressive against a defense that’s already allowed her to find her rhythm twice.


María Conde Less Than 10.5 Points

María Conde continues to receive plenty of playing time, but the scoring production has not consistently followed. She is averaging 9.1 PPG and has finished with nine and 10 points in her two games against Golden State despite playing at least 34 minutes in both. Even with Marina Mabrey sidelined Sunday, Conde needed 14 shots just to reach 10 points and missed all seven of her 3-point attempts. Golden State leads the WNBA in both defensive rating and opponent scoring, allowing a stifling 77.0 PPG.


What is DraftKings Pick6?

Pick6 is a peer-to-peer fantasy variant where you build a lineup (your “Pick Set”) of at least two players and select whether you believe each will outperform their listed stat projection. Enter your Pick Set in Pick6 contests to compete against other users. Get enough picks correct and win a share of cash prizes.


How to Play DraftKings Pick6

Create a Pick Set

Create a Pick Set by choosing 2+ players from the same sport and Pick Group (a set of picks available from a group of set competitions). For each player, simply select if you think they’ll have more or less than their listed stat projection. In each Pick Set, you cannot pick the same player twice and you must select players from at least two different teams.

Enter an Amount

Once you finalize your Pick Set, choose your entry fee amount. Your entries will be automatically distributed into available contests, subject to your confirmation.

Sweat Your Picks

When the games go live, use the My Picks tab to follow your picks in real time to track how your players are performing against their projections and how they stack up against other users.

Compete for Prizes

Make enough correct picks and win a share of the contests’ guaranteed prizes. Any prizes won will be credited to your DraftKings account after contests are finalized.
