The Seattle Storm will be hoping to break a 10-game losing streak when they visit the Portland Fire on Saturday night.
Portland has beaten Seattle in their first two meetings, and I'm taking it to cover again in my Storm vs. Fire predictions. Keep reading below to see my free WNBA picks for Saturday, August 8.
Storm vs Fire prediction
Storm vs Fire best bet: Fire -1.5 (+101)
The Seattle Storm haven't won a game in over a month and have already been eliminated from playoff contention.
They have one of the worst offenses in the WNBA, shooting 43.3% from the field and ranking 13th in offensive rating (101.9).
The Portland Fire are coming off a 14-point win over the Toronto Tempo. Offensively, they're hitting 35.3% of their shots from deep, and have put up 94.8 ppg in their last six contests.
At home against a floundering team, I like the Fire to cover at -2.5 or less, with the moneyline also being a strong play.
COVERS INTEL: The Fire force 14.5 turnovers per game, which will wreak havoc on a Storm offense that has a 1.30 assist-to-turnover ratio, third worst in the WNBA.
Storm vs Fire same-game parlay
For my same-game parlay, I'm combining Portland on the moneyline with the Over. The Fire have hit the Over in seven of their last nine games, while Seattle has played to totals of 178 or higher in seven of its last eight contests.
There's enough offense here to cover the total, especially with the Storm allowing 95.9 ppg during their 10-game losing streak.
I'm also taking Bridget Carleton to hit the Over on her rebounding prop. The Portland forward is averaging 4.3 rebounds per game, but has been killing it on the glass lately, grabbing 11 boards in each of her last two games.
Seattle allows opponents to grab 35.6 rebounds per game (second-highest in the league), leaving plenty of room for Carleton to go Over 4.5.
