WNBA Predictions & Odds Today for Tuesday, June 20 (Sun Make a Statement on the Road)

Updated:

The WNBA season continues on Tuesday with a trio of games. With a mix of teams looking to stay hot and ones looking to get back on track, expect there to be a couple of exciting contests. Here's a look at the full slate, including FanDuel Sportsbook's WNBA odds for today's matchups.

Atlanta Dream vs Dallas Wings Odds & Predictions

Odds & Game Info

Start time: 8 p.m. ET
Venue: College Park Center — Arlington, TX
Broadcast: NBA TV
Moneyline: ATL: (+128) | DAL: (-158)
Spread: ATL: +3.5 (-118) | DAL: -3.5 (-104)
Over/Under: 171.5 — Over (-114) | Under (-106)

Prediction

Atlanta and Dallas enter Tuesday riding opposite momentum. The Dream have rattled off three wins in a row to get back to the .500 mark, while the Wings have suffered three straight losses to fall under the .500 mark. Dallas earned an 85-78 win the last time these teams met back on May 20, though.

These teams rank similarly when it scoring, which makes diving into a few other statistics important. Dallas ranks first in free throw percentage (86.4%) and logs only 12.5 turnovers per game (No. 3 in WNBA). Meanwhile, the Dream rank no better than eighth in either category. Back the home team.

As for the best bet, go with Satou Sabally to record over 11.5 rebounds. Sabally has been a monster on the glass for Dallas as of late as she has averaged 12.1 rebounds over her last seven games. The former Oregon star should crush a Dream defense that allows the third-most rebounds per game.

Score prediction: Wings 86 - Dream 80
Best bet: Satou Sabally Over 11.5 Rebounds (-113)

Minnesota Lynx vs Los Angeles Sparks Odds & Predictions

Odds & Game Info

Start time: 8 p.m. ET
Venue: Crypto.com Arena — Los Angeles, CA
Broadcast: CBSSN
Moneyline: MIN: (+190) | LA: (-240)
Spread: MIN: +5.5 (-110) | LA: -5.5 (-110)
Over/Under: 156.5 — Over (-110) | Under (-110)

Prediction

The Lynx and Sparks are both playing catch-up to the Las Vegas Aces in the Western Conference. A win on Tuesday would go a long way in helping them stay within reach early on in the season. These teams have already met twice this year and the Lynx have emerged victorious in each showdown.

I expect the Sparks to do whatever they can to end that trend and earn a home win on Tuesday. They have an inside track to doing so considering they are facing a Lynx defense that allows a whopping 9.2 made threes per contest (No. 12 in WNBA). Launching from deep should be LA's strategy here.

When it comes to a best bet, back the over. More than 156 total points have been scored in seven of Minnesota's 11 games as well as in seven of LA's 11 games. Not only that, but neither one of these teams rank among the top eight in opponent field goal percentage. Expect a lot of easy buckets.

Score prediction: Sparks 84 - Lynx 78
Best bet: Over 156.5 Total Points (-110)

Connecticut Sun vs Seattle Storm Odds & Predictions

Odds & Game Info

Start time: 10 p.m. ET
Venue: Climate Pledge Arena — Seattle, WA
Broadcast: NBA TV
Moneyline: CON: (-430) | SEA: (+320)
Spread: CON: -8.5 (-112) | SEA: +8.5 (-108)
Over/Under: 159.5 — Over (-112) | Under (-108)

Prediction

The Sun sit atop the Eastern Conference with a 9-3 record and are coming off an 83-74 win over the Sparks on Sunday. On the other side, the Storm check in with a mediocre 3-7 record, but did notably take down the Wings by a score of 109-103 their last time out. The offense suddenly found a groove.

Don't expect that to repeat on Tuesday, though, as Connecticut ranks third in points allowed per game (78.6) and second in opponent three-point percentage (29.3%). The Sun know how to lock down the perimeter and force opposing teams to rely solely on two-point attempts. It leads to wins.

I'm going to stick with backing Connecticut as my best bet and trust them to cover as an 8.5-point favorite. Each of the Sun's last three wins have come by a margin of at least 9 points, while the Storm's most recent loss came by an insane 33-point margin. The talent gap is quite noticeable.

Score prediction: Sun 88 - Storm 75
Best bet: Connecticut Sun -8.5 (-112)
