On Saturday 29 August 2026, Indiana Fever play Connecticut Sun in the WNBA. Our model likes 5 bets here. The one it likes most is Under 177 Total Points, priced at +110 when we wrote this. Here is the thinking behind each pick, in plain English.

Under 177 Total Points (+110)

Odds available at Fanatics at time of publishing

The Indiana Fever have won 6 of their last 10 games, showing they can score when needed. However, they also let opponents shoot a lot of three-pointers, which could mean plenty of missed shots. The Connecticut Sun have struggled recently, winning only 3 of their last 10, and they also allow fewer rebounds than the Fever. With our numbers suggesting a total score around 171.7, betting on under 177 seems smart. The biggest risk here is that both teams have been inconsistent, so this could go either way. 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. 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.

Connecticut Sun +23.5 on the Line (-263)

Odds available at BetRivers at time of publishing

The Indiana Fever have been solid lately, winning six of their last ten games, but they still give up a lot of rebounds and threes. The Connecticut Sun, on the other hand, have struggled recently, winning only three of their last ten. However, they allow fewer rebounds and threes than Indiana, which could help them control the game. Given that the numbers see Connecticut as a strong favorite, taking them with a point spread of 23.5 feels smart. The risk here is that Indiana is playing at home, where they can be tricky. It was priced at -263 when we wrote this, so a $10 bet returns $13.80 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. Our model likes this one a lot. 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.

Saniya Rivers Over 8.5 Points (+110)

Odds available at Fanatics at time of publishing

Indiana Fever have been on a roll, winning 6 of their last 10 games, and Saniya Rivers has been a big part of that. The Fever's defense allows a fair amount of shots from three-point range, which means Rivers could find open looks to score. Meanwhile, the Connecticut Sun have struggled recently, winning only 3 of their last 10, and they give up more rebounds than Indiana. This could lead to more opportunities for Indiana's offense. The risk is that the game could be tightly contested, making every point crucial. I'm betting on Rivers to score over 8.5 points. 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. 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.

Caitlin Clark Under 8.5 Assists (+109)

Odds available at William Hill at time of publishing

Caitlin Clark has been struggling to rack up assists lately, which is why betting on her to get under 8.5 assists looks good. The Connecticut Sun have allowed fewer assists than most teams, giving up around 21.7 three-point attempts per game, which suggests they might focus on defending the perimeter. This could make it tougher for Clark to find open teammates for easy shots. Additionally, the Sun are pretty solid on the boards, giving up only 32.2 rebounds a game, which means there might not be as many second-chance opportunities for assists. The most concrete risk here is that Clark could have a surprising breakout game, but right now, the numbers really favor this pick. It was priced at +109 when we wrote this, so a $10 bet returns $20.90 if it lands. This one is priced as an outside chance. 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.

Diamond Miller Under 13.5 Points and Rebounds (-112)

Odds available at FanDuel at time of publishing

Diamond Miller has been playing well, but the matchup against the Connecticut Sun could be tricky. The Sun allow fewer rebounds than the league average, which doesn't help Miller's chances to rack up points and boards. Plus, Indiana Fever has won 6 of their last 10 games, showing they can score, but Miller might not get as many opportunities with the Sun's tough defense. The risk here is that both teams are playing closely, making it hard to predict how Miller will perform. With the Sun allowing fewer rebounds than most teams and Miller facing a tight game, betting on her to go under 13.5 points and rebounds feels like a smart choice. This matchup is close, but sometimes less is more! It was priced at -112 when we wrote this, so a $10 bet returns $18.90 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 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.
