Over 163.5 Total Points (-108)

Odds available at William Hill at time of publishing

The Atlanta Dream have been on fire lately, winning 8 of their last 10 games and averaging almost 96 points a game in their last 20. They've shown they can score big, especially at home. The Washington Mystics are also in great form, winning 8 of their last 10 and putting up around 84 points a game. With both teams in such good scoring shape, it's likely we'll see plenty of points. Betting on the total points to go over 163.5 seems smart since our numbers suggest a combined total around 167.2. The only real risk is that both teams might have a slower game, but given their recent scoring, that seems unlikely. Let's hope for an exciting shootout! 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.

Jordin Canada Under 9.5 Rebounds and Assists (+110)

Odds available at FanDuel at time of publishing

Jordin Canada has been solid for Atlanta Dream, but in this matchup against the Washington Mystics, the numbers suggest she might struggle to rack up rebounds and assists. The Dream have been winning a lot lately, averaging almost 96 points a game over their last 20 games, but the Mystics are also on a hot streak, scoring 83.6 points. This means the pace might not leave Canada with enough opportunities to hit the higher numbers. One big concern is that Canada hasn't been grabbing many rebounds lately, averaging just 2 in her recent games. With both teams playing well and the competition being close, it's reasonable to think she could fall short of 10 combined rebounds and assists tonight. So, taking the under 9.5 looks like a smart choice. It was priced at +110 when we wrote this, so a $10 bet returns $21 if it lands. This one is priced as an outside chance. Our model has this as a long shot, so keep the stake small. 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.

Angel Reese Over 18.5 Points and Assists (-110)

Odds available at FanDuel at time of publishing

Angel Reese has been a key player for the Atlanta Dream, especially with how well she scores and assists. The Dream have been on fire lately, winning 8 of their last 10 games and averaging almost 96 points per game. This means there are plenty of chances for Reese to rack up both points and assists in this matchup against the Washington Mystics, who are also performing well with 8 wins in their last 10 games. The main risk here is that both teams are in strong form, which could lead to a tighter game than expected. However, with Reese's current scoring and assist ability, betting on her to go over 18.5 points and assists looks promising. It's a solid pick given her performance and how the game is shaping up. 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 (-111)

Odds available at BetOnline 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 -111 when we wrote this, so a $10 bet returns $19.00 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. 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.
