Fire vs Tempo Prediction, Picks & Odds for Tonight’s WNBA Game
Free WNBA Expert and Computer Picks For Every Game May 23, 2026
Marina Mabrey was kept in check in the disappointing loss to the Lynx earlier this week, but she was the Tempo's brightest light in their opening two home games, where she attempted a combined 38 shots. Her impact as a steadying force will be even more important for Toronto with point guard Julie Allemand sidelined, and I expect Sandy Brondello to put the ball in Mabrey's hands to initiate early offense here
Sykes leads the Tempo with 22.3 PPG, and she’s breezed past this O/U number in three of her last four contests as an ideal running mate for Marina Mabrey. She's only shooting 29% from beyond the arc, but there will be opportunities to get into the paint here against a Portland Fire team that’s giving up 93.2 PPG, second-most in the WNBA.
A career 38% 3-point shooter, Chelsea Gray has begun the year on a tear from downtown, making 13 of her 21 triple attempts during the defending champs' four-game win streak. She's nailed this Over in three of those outings, and I'm expecting more of the same in tonight's clash with the Los Angeles Sparks.
Kelsey Plum faces her former teammates tonight and, even after winning two titles in Sin City, there has to be a sting at seeing the Las Vegas Aces win the championship without her last year. Plum is averaging 24.6 PPG this season, while cruising past this O/U number in four of her five outings, and I’d happily bet the Over up to 22.5 here.
