Sky vs Sun prop: Kamilla Cardoso 10+ points & 10+ rebounds

Probability: 53%

Cardoso (14.7 ppg) has been one of Chicago's most consistent scorers this season. She's put up 11+ points in nine straight games, and always gets enough usage to post respectable scoring totals. 

Because Cardoso is effective on the boards, she's compiled four double-doubles in her last six games. At 6-foot-7, Cardoso will clearly outsize anyone on the Sun except Griner. But the aging Sun center hasn't played since Aug. 13 and is no longer a rebounding force in any case.

Fire vs Wings prop: Paige Bueckers 6+ assists

Probability: 61%

The Portland Fire have allowed the most assists per game this season at a whopping 23, and Bueckers is averaging a career-best 5.8 dimes per game.

Bueckers has handed out 6+ helpers in 20 of 36 games overall and 10 of 17 at home. Over the last six outings, Shepard has taken a step back as a facilitator, and Bueckers has shined with 6.2 assists per game, hitting the Over on this line four times.

Mystics vs Mercury prop: Kiki Iriafen 10+ rebounds

Probability: 50%

The loss of size for the Mercury sets the table for Washington forward Kiki Iriafen to have a night on the boards. 

She’s cleaning the glass in recent showings, pulling down double-digit boards in each of the past three games. 

The 6-foot-3 Iriafen will find herself in mismatches with small foes, allowing her to track down defensive rebounds and battle for offensive misses. Thirteen of her 36 total rebounds in the last three games have come on the offensive glass.

Projections call for 11 rebounds from Iriafen tonight.

How to bet WNBA player props today

Player props allow WNBA bettors to wager on a player’s total points, assists, rebounds, 3-pointers made, and a number of individual statistics like combo markets.

Just like standard Over/Under odds, prediction markets like Kalshi will set a projected total number for those stats, and bettors can predict whether the player or team will have Over or Under that total.

What is Kalshi?

Kalshi is a federally regulated platform for trading event outcomes on prediction markets. Traders can buy and sell simple, transparent contracts that settle based on the outcome of real-world events. Markets revolve around a yes/no proposition, with prices adjusting dynamically based on traders’ perceived probability that the event will occur. When the event concludes, if you are correct, the contract “honors” at a predetermined price; if you are incorrect, it expires at $0.
