Breanna Stewart Over 20.5 points

Breanna Stewart saw her scoring average dip slightly last season as Sabrina Ionescu took on a bigger offensive role, but there have been zero signs of decline from the two-time WNBA MVP entering her age-31 season.

With Ionescu currently recovering from a left ankle injury, the Liberty offense is once again running heavily through Stewart. That showed immediately in New York’s opener when Stewart erupted for 31 points on 10-of-17 shooting against Connecticut.

The Washington Mystics struggled defensively against expansion Toronto in their opener, and Stewart is in position for another massive usage night while the Liberty wait for Ionescu to get fully healthy.

Kelsey Plum Over 1.5 made threes

Kelsey Plum has been one of the WNBA’s most reliable perimeter shooters for years, averaging at least 2.4 made threes per game across each of the last four seasons while shooting at least 35% from deep every year.

Nothing from the preseason suggested that production is slowing down. Plum knocked down six triples across two exhibition games and now gets a chance to open the season against her former team when the Sparks host the Aces tonight.

Plum also has a history of starting seasons fast, including a 37-point opening-night explosion in her Sparks debut last year. She doesn’t need anything close to that kind of performance to clear this number.

Veronica Burton Over 1.5 made threes

Veronica Burton began taking on more perimeter volume late last season and carried that confidence into the Valkyries’ opener, knocking down two of her four attempts from beyond the arc against Seattle.

Honestly, the surprising part was that she only attempted four threes. Golden State clearly wants Burton spacing the floor, and her shooting volume should continue climbing as the offense evolves.

Burton has now shot at least 34% from deep in each of the last two seasons, including a career-high volume campaign in 2025. Until sportsbooks fully adjust this line, the Over remains worth targeting.

He graduated from Syracuse University with degrees in Magazine Journalism and Political Science in 2003, and has covered major gambling events like the World Series of Poker in his career. Since joining Covers in 2022, Ed has offered his sports betting analysis primarily on MLB, NFL, college football, and college basketball games, but is willing to take on any sport.

His betting strategy focuses more on finding line value based on deviations from the market rather than traditional handicapping, primarily shopping between DraftKings, FanDuel, and Fanatics in his home state of Connecticut, though he’s not afraid to do deep game analysis to find profitable bets at any book.

Outside of gambling, Ed is an avid curler who competes in mixed doubles on the World Curling Tour and runs a popular curling YouTube channel, Chess on Ice. That experience has come in handy during the Olympics, when he has proven to be a successful curling bettor as well. 

Ed's advice to new bettors is to always open multiple sportsbook accounts and check the odds at each before placing any bet. Successful sports betting is about consistently beating the closing line value, which requires finding spots where one book is offering odds far better than the rest of the market and jumping on those opportunities.
