The WNBA playoff race is going to be a heated one down the stretch. Only three and a half games separate the second seed from the eighth seed. Both the Atlanta Dream and the Las Vegas Aces are square in the middle of this race. A’ja Wilson is doing her best to keep Vegas’ season alive.
The Aces’ three-time MVP is having another incredible season, but the team is crumbling around her. The role players have diminished, the defense is no longer what it used to be, and they no longer possess their championship identity. At 11-11, they’d be lucky to make the postseason, let alone win a game against the top seeds in the WNBA.
The Aces are one-point favorites at home and -115 on the moneyline on DraftKings Sportsbook. The total is 161.5 points. Let’s look at the best Wilson prop bet for this contest.
Best A’ja Wilson Prop Bet
The reigning MVP was everywhere in Vegas’ last game before the All-Star break. In a two-point win over the Valkyries, Wilson put up 34 points and 16 rebounds in a statement performance. It didn’t stop after the break; in another victory over the Wings, Wilson managed 37 points and 10 rebounds. It feels like she is back to her unstoppable self.
This Dream squad will be a different challenge entirely. The formidable frontcourt duo of Brionna Jones and Brittney Griner will present a serious defensive challenge. But with the way Wilson has looked recently, it’s difficult to pick against her. Even if it’s not a game of the 30+ point double-double variety, Wilson will find a way to get hers in this one. Count on her to deliver on Tuesday night.
