Jewell Loyd Under 2.5 Three-Pointers Made (+134)
Odds available at fanduel at time of publishing As the Aces prepare to host the Fire at the Michelob Ultra Arena, all eyes will be on Jewell Loyd, but a closer look suggests the under on her three-pointers made is the savvy play. While Loyd is undoubtedly a dynamic scorer, this matchup presents challenges that could limit her perimeter success. The Aces' defense is notorious for stifling outside shooting, forcing opponents to adapt or falter. With their focus on closing out hard, Loyd may find it tough to get clean looks from beyond the arc. Furthermore, the Aces boast a deep roster, meaning Loyd may not carry the same scoring burden tonight. Considering our model's projection of around 1.8 treys, it seems reasonable to think she'll fall short of 2.5. In what promises to be a tightly contested game, taking the under on Loyd's three-pointers is a calculated move that reflects the realities of this matchup.
