Under 175.5 Total Points (+110)
Odds available at Fanatics at time of publishing
The Connecticut Sun have struggled lately, winning only 3 of their last 10 games. They also give up a fair number of three-point shots, but they actually allow fewer rebounds than most teams. This matchup with the Indiana Fever looks like it could be tight, and our numbers suggest a combined score around 171.7. With both teams not scoring at their best, betting on fewer than 175.5 total points makes sense. Just remember, it could easily go the other way if both teams find their rhythm. It was priced at +110 when we wrote this, so a $10 bet returns $21 if it lands. This is an alternate line, so it is not the main number on the board and the price moves with it. This one is priced as an outside chance. 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.
Connecticut Sun +24.5 on the Line (-286)
Odds available at Fanatics at time of publishing
Indiana Fever have been struggling lately, and they might have a tough time against the Connecticut Sun. The Sun have only won 3 of their last 10 games, but they typically allow fewer rebounds than most teams, which could help them control the game. Since 2019, they've let opponents grab around 32 rebounds a game, while the Fever might struggle to take advantage of that. With the Sun at 24.5, it looks like a good chance for them to cover the spread, but it's worth noting that the Fever are at home and can always surprise. It was priced at -286 when we wrote this, so a $10 bet returns $13.50 if it lands. The number next to the team is the handicap, and that team's score is adjusted by it before the bet is settled. 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 clear favourite. 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.

For Aaliyah Edwards to score over 12.5 points tonight, she needs to find her rhythm early against the Connecticut Sun. While the Sun have struggled recently, winning only 3 of their last 10 games, they also allow teams to shoot plenty of three-pointers and grab a decent number of rebounds. This means Edwards could get good opportunities to score, especially if her teammates create space for her. Edwards has been playing well, averaging more points than usual lately. The fact that the Sun give up around 32 rebounds a game could help her get extra chances for put-backs or assists leading to easy buckets. However, the close nature of this matchup means she could face some solid defense. Still, with her recent scoring form and the Sun's defensive issues, it looks promising for her to hit that over. 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. 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.

Aliyah Boston has been struggling with rebounds lately, averaging under 8.5 per game. The Connecticut Sun have allowed their opponents to grab around 32 rebounds against them on average, which is better than the league average. This matchup looks tight, as both teams are finding it hard to score, and that could lead to fewer rebound chances. The risk here is that Boston could have a big game if she gets more minutes or if the game turns into a high-scoring affair. Still, considering her recent form and the Sun's defensive stats, betting on her to get under 8.5 rebounds seems like a solid call. 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. 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.
Caitlin Clark Under 35.5 Points, Rebounds and Assists (-110)
Odds available at DraftKings at time of publishing
Caitlin Clark has been putting in a lot of minutes lately, but her scoring and overall output have been a bit inconsistent. In her last ten games, her total points, rebounds, and assists have ranged quite a bit, often falling below our target of 35.5. The Indiana Fever have had some success recently, winning six of their last ten games, but they also give up a fair amount of rebounds and threes, which could affect her game. The Connecticut Sun have struggled more, winning just three of their last ten. While they don't allow a ton of three-point attempts, Clark's recent games show she can hit a low point. This matchup could be close, making it tricky for anyone to predict. With her recent form and the way these teams have been playing, betting under 35.5 seems like a smart choice. 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. 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 Indiana Fever v Connecticut Sun. 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.
