Valkyries vs Sun prop: Veronica Burton Over 5.5 assists

Probability: 56%

Veronica Burton is averaging 5.6 assists per game on the year, and has been the engine that powers what little offense the Golden State Valkyries put together on most nights. She's been outstanding in this regard throughout August, picking up 6+ assists in six of her nine games this month.

The Sun play a disruptive defense that creates 8.2 steals per game, but that's a high-risk, high-reward approach. Connecticut's opponents also generate 19.1 assists per game, the second-most in the WNBA. I'm backing Burton to hit her Over on this market at any number longer than -200.

Tempo vs Storm prop: Dominique Malonga Over 9.5 rebounds

Probability: 54%

Dominique Malonga will be the best player on the court between both teams, and she should be a force down low and on the glass against a Toronto Tempo side that is third-to-last in rebounding in the WNBA.

Malonga has pulled down at least 10 boards in five of her last eight games.

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.
