It’s a veteran showdown in this SGP, with Williams going past this points O/U mark in both meetings with the Sky this year, and Skylar Diggins coming off 23 points in 36 minutes on Wednesday for a banged-up Chicago squad. I’m taking the Lynx moneyline too, with the visitors a perfect 3-0 on the road this year and the Sky still looking for their first home victory of 2026.
Look for Courtney Williams to pick up where she left off in a 25-point effort against the Atlanta Dream in midweek, and she's gone past this O/U number in four of her last five contests, including Saturday’s visit to Chicago. Williams has also nailed her 3-pointers at a 50% clip in that span, and I’d confidently buy up to 17.5 on this line.

Dearica Hamby o8.5 Total Rebounds (-112)
Tonight offers a perfect bounce-back opportunity For Dearica Hamby who had a quiet five rebound night against the Las Vegas Aces as L.A. faces the Washington Mystics. Make no mistake, the presence of young Mystics talents like Shakira Austin and Kiki Iriafen is nothing to downplay, but Hamby's veteran experience and extra rest should carry the day. Washington is still experiencing growing pains as a young team and is on shorter rest after playing on Wednesday. Look for a rejuvenated Hamby (who averages 8.2 rpg) to rack up the rebounds and clear this prop.
The Sparks have relied on their offense to stay in games, as LA ranks second in scoring (91.5 ppg) and dead last in opponent scoring (96 ppg). No Kelsey Plum and an abysmal defense put LA at a major disadvantage. I’ll bet the line up to 4.5.
The point total opened as high as 170.5, but I’m still happy to bet it down to 164.5. The Mystics rank last in pace, and they’ll limit shot opportunities for an offense that will likely be sputtering, playing its third straight road game and operating without its top scorer.

Marine Johannes currently leads the WNBA with 27 made three-pointers this season. Johannes has shot 42% or better from beyond the arc in five of the Liberty's last eight games, which includes a sizzling 7-for-9 (78%) performance against the Phoenix Mercury — the exact team she has the pleasure of facing again tonight for the second time this week. Defending the perimeter is a glaring flaw for Phoenix, as they allow the second-highest opponent 3-point percentage in the league at 37.3%.
u170.5 (-110)
The New York Liberty continue to struggle offensively, having averaged 76.0 ppg with a 98.4 offensive rating over their last four games.
The issues of integrating Satou Sabally and Sabrina Ionescu have been amplified by the fact that they can’t keep both on the court. Sabally is back in the lineup tonight, while Ionescu is out again with a back issue.

Allisha Gray is primed for heavy volume against a young Portland squad prone to high-scoring shootouts. Coming off an efficient 21-point, five-triple performance on Wednesday, Gray will lead the offense for a Dream squad out for blood after a bitter 96-81 blowout loss to Minnesota. Backed by the elite defensive duo of Reese and Howard, Atlanta's depth and veteran experience should ultimately prevail, ensuring they close out their road trip on a high note.
u164.0 (-110)
The Atlanta Dream only give up a stingy 82.0 points per game with a perimeter chokehold that completely kills transition buckets. Meanwhile, the Portland Fire just proved they love the mud, grinding out a gritty 71-61 win over Connecticut by slowing the tempo and letting Emily Engstler (2.3 blocks per game) anchor the paint. With both squads dialed in defensively, this matchup screams half-court chess match.
