Under 181.5 Total Points (-110)

Odds available at FanDuel at time of publishing

Connecticut Sun have struggled lately, winning only 3 of their last 10 games. They allow opponents to shoot a lot of three-pointers, but they're actually decent at rebounding, giving up fewer boards than most teams. This matchup against the Indiana Fever should be tight, and both teams might find it hard to score big. With our numbers suggesting a combined total of about 171.7 points, betting on under 181.5 points feels smart. The Fever also have their own challenges, and the overall scoring might be lower than expected. The biggest risk is that both teams are evenly matched, so it could go either way. 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.

Connecticut Sun +24 on the Line (-270)

Odds available at Fanatics at time of publishing

The Indiana Fever struggle to keep opponents from scoring, letting teams shoot a lot of threes. The Connecticut Sun have only won 3 of their last 10 games, but they allow fewer rebounds than most teams, which helps them control the game. Our numbers think the Sun are a strong favorite, and they may win by a decent margin. However, the Fever can be tricky at home, so that's something to watch out for. Overall, betting on the Sun to cover the point spread seems like a solid choice. It was priced at -270 when we wrote this, so a $10 bet returns $13.70 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.

Kelsey Mitchell Over 4.5 Rebounds and Assists (-112)

Odds available at BetOnline at time of publishing

For Kelsey Mitchell to go over 4.5 rebounds and assists tonight, she needs to stay active on both ends of the court. The Connecticut Sun have struggled with rebounding, giving up about 32 boards a game, which could help her grab a few. Plus, they let opponents shoot plenty of threes, meaning there could be more missed shots for her to collect. However, she has been known to have quieter games, and that's the biggest risk here. Still, our numbers suggest she has a good chance to hit this mark. It was priced at -112 when we wrote this, so a $10 bet returns $18.90 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. 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 36.5 Points, Rebounds and Assists (-108)

Odds available at FanDuel at time of publishing

Caitlin Clark is up against the Connecticut Sun at Gainbridge Fieldhouse. The Sun have struggled lately, winning only 3 of their last 10 games. They give up quite a few rebounds, averaging 32.2 a game, which could limit Clark's chances to rack up those stats. Plus, the Sun's defense tends to allow a lot of three-point attempts. We think Clark will find it tough to hit the over on 36.5 combined points, rebounds, and assists in this matchup. The Sun's defensive style might keep her numbers down, especially with how closely matched both teams are lately. Just keep in mind that Clark could surprise us all, as she is capable of big nights, but this bet feels solid based on recent trends. 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. 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.

Sophie Cunningham Under 1.5 Three-Pointers Made (-114)

Odds available at FanDuel at time of publishing

Sophie Cunningham has had a tough time finding her rhythm lately, which makes this pick interesting. The Connecticut Sun have won only three of their last ten games, and they struggle with giving up three-pointers. Since 2019, they've allowed teams to shoot an average of 21.7 three-point attempts per game, which is slightly better than the league average. Cunningham's recent form suggests she might not hit her usual marks today. She's been averaging fewer three-pointers lately, and that makes the bet on her making under 1.5 in this game against Indiana Fever a solid choice. It was priced at -114 when we wrote this, so a $10 bet returns $18.80 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.
