Minnesota Lynx @ Washington Mystics

  • Mystics: 18-6-2 1H ATS (8-2 1H ATS as home underdogs).


Betting on the Mystics 1H has become an auto-bet, as they’ve consistently covered this all season. Remarkably, they’ve done this largely without two of their best players, Shakira Austin and Brittany Sykes. With both of them healthy, we expect their first half successes to continue and we’re backing WAS 1H +3 (-115, DraftKings).



New York Liberty @ Las Vegas Aces

  • Aces: 6-1 ATS with more rest than their opponent
  • Aces: 3-10 1H O/U as home favorites.

The situational factors strongly favor the Aces in today’s marquee matchup. Despite a relatively shaky season for the defending champions, they’ve thrived in situations where they’re more rested than their opponents. Additionally, backing the home team in a clash of elite teams has historically been a profitable angle. We love the Aces -3 (-110, DraftKings), and would even take them up to -3.5.



Chicago Sky @ Los Angeles Sparks

  • Sky: 8-17 1H O/U.

From a trend perspective, not much stands out, but we have a Baller System active on the Sky, and our model/algorithm also favors the Sky to cover. If Chennedy Carter is ruled in (she was a late scratch last game due to illness), we like the Sky up to -3. Carter was recently vocal about being ranked below Caitlyn Clark in the latest ESPN player rankings, which should add some extra motivation to her game.
