Despite bouncing around the W and playing internationally in 2025, Carter is a career
15.5 point per game scorer who has dropped 14+ in 47 of 87 career games, including
24 of 33 in 2024.

Chennedy Carter has always been a dangerous offensive threat – at least when she can get
opportunities and stay on the court. She’s averaging 14.8 ppg for her career, and put up a career high 17.5 ppg last year for the Chicago Sky.

Kiki Iriafen was a double-double machine in college, and her early returns are showing she has the same potential at the pro level. Iriafen has easily put up a double-double in each of her first two games with the Washington Mystics, and under the odds on this market come down significantly, I'm going to keep backing her to put up double-digit poitns and rebounds.

Shakira Austin wins the tip and gives Washington first crack at the basket. Kiki Irafen sits second on the team in usage and has started the season shooting well, connecting at a 54.5% clip through the first two games of 2026. She opens scoring versus Indiana tonight.

The Phoenix Mercury have won seven straight against the Chicago Sky, with six wins by at least five points. Phoenix has averaged 90.3 points across those seven wins, and they burst the early-season good vibes in the Chi on Friday.

The Tempo are going to have to weather an early storm, with the Sparks desperate to land a win at home before a four-game road trip, and I expect Kelsey Plum to come out firing for the hosts. Plum has scored 25+ points in her first two outings, so don’t be surprised if L.A. rides that hot hand on the opening possessions. She knocked down four 3-pointers in the season opener, and her jump shot will be key in unpicking a stubborn Toronto defense.

After a whirlwind preseason, the Toronto Tempo are still figuring out all the pieces on a deep roster. While the offense remains a work in progress, Toronto’s defensive grit has jumped off the screen in its first two contests, holding both opponents to fewer than 75 points, and I think the visitors can hang around here. The early signs have been grimmer for the Los Angeles Sparks, who gave up 105 points in their season opener and were only marginally better in Wednesday’s loss to the Indiana Fever. Dating back to last season, the Sparks are now 3-7 ATS in their past 10 games, and they’ll be without key guard Ariel Atkins (concussion protocol) tonight.
