Over 165 Total Points (-108)

Odds available at LowVig at time of publishing

The Atlanta Dream have been on a scoring tear lately, winning 8 of their last 10 games and averaging nearly 96 points in their recent outings. They're playing at home, which usually gives them an extra boost. The Washington Mystics are also in great form, winning 8 of their last 10 and putting up about 84 points per game. Both teams are scoring well, making this matchup exciting. I like the bet on total points over 165. The Dream and Mystics both have strong offenses, so it's likely they will combine for a high score. However, the risk is that both teams are closely matched, and if their defenses show up, it could make hitting that total tricky. Still, with their recent scoring, this game could easily go over. It was priced at -108 when we wrote this, so a $10 bet returns $19.30 if it lands. The bookmakers have this as a slight favourite. Our model leans this way without loving it. Prices move, so check the price at your bookmaker before you back it. And if this one does not feel right to you, skipping it is a perfectly good move.

DeWanna Bonner Under 5.5 Rebounds (-110)

DeWanna Bonner is coming into this game with a solid performance, but Atlanta Dream's strong recent play makes this matchup interesting. The Dream have won eight of their last ten games and are scoring an impressive 95.9 points per game over their last 20. This high-scoring offense often leads to fewer rebounds for individual players, which is why betting on Bonner to have under 5.5 rebounds seems promising. On the flip side, Washington Mystics are also doing well, winning eight of their last ten. However, Bonner has not been grabbing many rebounds lately, with her team's stats showing a drop in defensive stats like blocks and steals. The most concrete risk is that both teams are performing well, making it a challenge to predict individual stats accurately. Still, this bet feels like a good chance. It was priced at -110 when we wrote this, so a $10 bet returns $19.10 if it lands. The bookmakers have this as a slight favourite. Our model leans this way without loving it. Prices move, so check the price at your bookmaker before you back it. And if this one does not feel right to you, skipping it is a perfectly good move.

Lauren Betts Over 5.5 Points (-110)

Odds available at Fanatics at time of publishing

The bet on Lauren Betts scoring over 5.5 points looks promising at -115 odds. Both Atlanta Dream and Washington Mystics are in great form, winning 8 of their last 10 games. The Dream have been particularly strong, scoring an impressive 95.9 points a game in their last 20 outings. Betts has been getting a fair amount of free throws lately, which could help her score more easily. The main risk is that the Mystics also have a solid defense, so it might be close. Still, Betts has a good shot to hit the over here. It was priced at -110 when we wrote this, so a $10 bet returns $19.10 if it lands. This is an alternate line, so it is not the main number on the board and the price moves with it. The bookmakers have this as a slight favourite. Our model leans this way without loving it.

Rhyne Howard Under 18.5 Points (-110)

Odds available at FanDuel at time of publishing

Rhyne Howard has been on fire lately, helping the Atlanta Dream score an impressive average of nearly 96 points in their last 20 games. However, in this matchup against the Washington Mystics, it might be tougher for her to reach over 18.5 points. Both teams are playing well, winning 5 of their last 6 games, but Howard could face a lot of defensive pressure given how closely matched these teams are. On top of that, the Mystics have been known to limit scoring opportunities. They typically force more turnovers and give away fewer free throws than usual. This could mean fewer chances for Howard to rack up points. While she's capable of a big game, the risk is that the defense might just keep her under that total. It was priced at -110 when we wrote this, so a $10 bet returns $19.10 if it lands. The bookmakers have this as a slight favourite. Our model leans this way without loving it. Prices move, so check the price at your bookmaker before you back it. And if this one does not feel right to you, skipping it is a perfectly good move.

That is how our model reads Atlanta Dream v Washington Mystics. Prices move, so check the price at your bookmaker before you back anything. And if a game does not feel right to you, the strongest move is to skip it -- there is another one tomorrow.
