WNBA Best Bets and Predictions Today

Atlanta Dream vs New York Liberty

Atlanta Dream -1.5 (-114)

Atlanta has been playing well coming into this matchup, going 8-2 over its last 10 games and averaging 97.4 points during that stretch. The Dream are also allowing just 81.6 points per game over those 10 games. New York is 7-3 over its last 10, but the Liberty are coming off a 106-69 win over Toronto on Sunday, so this is a quick turnaround for them. Atlanta's extra rest gives the Dream a little more of an advantage here.

Atlanta lost the first meeting 104-90, but the Dream have been the more consistent team recently. With only 1.5 points to work with, Atlanta -1.5 is the play.

Angel Reese Over 31.5 Points + Rebounds + Assists (-104)

Reese has been producing across all three categories since the WNBA season resumed. She put up 30 points and 10 rebounds against Connecticut on Thursday before finishing with 23 points, 10 rebounds and 4 assists against Chicago on Saturday.

That gives her 37 PRA in her most recent game, and she has averaged 10 rebounds in each of her two games since the break. The 31.5 line also gives us some room compared with taking a higher individual scoring or rebounding line.

Dallas Wings vs Phoenix Mercury

Dallas Wings -5.5 (-110)

Dallas has won six straight games, including an 87-82 win over Phoenix on Saturday. That was the second meeting between these teams this season, and Dallas has won both, including an 85-70 victory in June.

Dallas averages 89.1 points per game this season compared with 84.4 for Phoenix, while the Wings also allow fewer points per game. With Dallas already having success against Phoenix twice this season, -5.5 is the side here.

WNBA Betting -- Frequently Asked Questions

What does the point spread mean in WNBA betting?

The point spread is a margin set by oddsmakers to level the playing field between two unevenly matched teams. For example, if the Dallas Wings are listed at -7.5, they need to win by 8 or more points for a bet on them to cash. Conversely, a bet on their opponent at +7.5 wins if that team loses by 7 or fewer points — or wins outright.

What is the moneyline?

The moneyline is a straight-up bet on which team wins the game, with no spread involved. Favorites carry a negative number (e.g., -200, meaning you must risk $200 to win $100), while underdogs carry a positive number (e.g., +170, meaning a $100 bet returns $170 profit).

How does the over/under (game total) work?

Oddsmakers set a projected combined score for the game, and bettors wager on whether the actual total will go over or under that number. For instance, if the total is set at 154.5 points, an over bet wins if both teams combine for 155 or more points. WNBA totals can swing based on pace of play, rest situations, and injuries, so it's worth tracking those factors before placing a total bet.

What are WNBA player props?

Player props are bets tied to an individual player's statistical performance rather than the game's outcome. Common prop bet markets include points scored, assists, rebounds, three-pointers made, and combinations of those stats.
