WNBA Betting Picks and Props for Tonight

New York Liberty at Golden State Valkyries

Valkyries +9.5 (-108)

After beginning the season 9-0, the New York Liberty have looked human of late, going 1-3 over the last four games. Sabrina Ionescu was absent in the Liberty's last game, but she practiced on Tuesday (neck).

Meanwhile, the Golden State Valkyries are red-hot with a 5-1 record over the last six games. This includes a 5-1 record against the spread (ATS), and the Liberty have failed to cover four straight games and five of the previous six.

The matchup is there for the Valkyries, as well. They shoot the second-most threes per game while New York gives up the fourth-most three-point looks per contest. The other side of the court makes this evenly matched, though, as the Liberty launch the fourth-most triples per game while Golden State gives up the fifth-most.

Considering the recent trends, a 9.5-point spread simply feels too high. The Valkyries should win the possession battle with the third-highest offensive rebounding rate while New York has the second-lowest defensive rebounding percentage. The Liberty also have the lowest offensive rebounding rate, compared to Golden State sporting the highest mark for defensive rebounding.

I'll keep backing the Valkyries' hot streak, especially with them having a chance to dominate the boards.

Kayla Thornton Over 14.5 Points (-118)

The play of Golden State leading scorer Kayla Thornton -- who logs 15.2 points per game (PPG) -- has been a pivotal part of the 5-1 stretch. She's averaging 19.3 PPG over the last six games.

Making 18 of her last 45 three-point attempts (40.0%) has played a large part in her success. Thornton's 7.5 three-point shots per game during the stretch isn't far off from her season-long (and team-high) 6.7 three-point shots per contest.

The three-point volume should still be present with the Liberty ceding the fourth-most three-point attempts per game. We can get exposure to Golden State's three-point attack by taking her to go over 14.5 points. Plus, this bet correlates well with Golden State +9.5.

Connecticut Sun at Las Vegas Aces

A'ja Wilson to Record a Double-Double (-155)

A'ja Wilson is nearly averaging a double-double this season with 21.1 PPG and 9.8 rebounds per game (RPG), yet she's posted a double-double in only one of the last five. This comes after posting a double-double in four of her first five games of the 2025 season.

Fortunately, getting back to double-doubles looks likely against perhaps the worst team in the WNBA -- the Connecticut Sun. They sit at 2-12 and have lost six straight. The Las Vegas Aces have their issues with a 6-7 record, but tonight's 19.0-point spread suggests there's hope ahead.

Pretty much anything that could help Wilson total a double-double is a weakness for the Sun. Connecticut has the lowest defensive rebounding rate and fourth-lowest offensive rebounding percentage. Wilson is fourth in defensive rebounding rate among players with at least 20.0 minutes per game.

Furthermore, Wilson takes 64.2% of her shots within 10 feet of the rim, and the Sun cede the third-most points in the paint per game. Opponents average the second-most free throw attempts per game against Connecticut, too. Wilson leads the Aces with 8.1 free throw shots per game.
