WNBA Best Bets Today (Predictions, Prop Bets for Satou Sabally, Marina Mabrey and Ace

It’s been a pretty regular season for my WNBA Best Bets, as a sweep on Sunday pushed this season’s record to +8.17 units, and there’s still time to continue capitalizing!

After a day off on Monday, the WNBA returns with four games on Tuesday night, including the fourth and final game of the regular season between the Las Vegas Aces and Chicago Sky.

Chicago is in danger of falling out of 8th place in the standings, but can it win outright as a big underdog?

I have a tip for this game and also a few player tips for two players who have been in top form since the Olympic break.

Even though I’m not thrilled with Tuesday’s lineup – hence the three half-sessions – I still think we can gain an advantage with these tips.

Satou Sabally 3+ 3-pointers (+100) โ€“ 0.5 units

Since returning from injury and making her season debut after the Olympic break, Satou Sabally has been in top form for the Dallas Wings.

The All-Star forward has made three or more shots from beyond the three-point line in five of her seven games, for a shooting percentage of 48.8 percent on 6.1 attempts per game. Aside from a two-attempt game on Aug. 22, Sabally has made at least six shots from beyond the three-point line in every other game since her return.

I expect them to have a strong game against a Washington Mystic team that ranks 10th in the league in opponent 3-pointers allowed per game (8.2) and eighth in opponent 3-point percentage (34.7) this season.

The Wings should continue to rely on Sabally’s long-range shots on Tuesday.

Marina Mabrey 14+ points (-115) โ€“ 0.5 unit

The Connecticut Sun found a gem at the trade deadline with the signing of guard Marin Mabrey.

Since coming to Connecticut, Mabrey is averaging 15.5 points per game on 48.0 percent shooting from the field and 46.0 percent from three-point range. She has scored 14 or more points in six of her eight games, including five in a row.

Mabrey scored 15 points on just 11 shots in a win over the Seattle Storm on Sunday, and she showed no inhibitions about getting her shots off the ground, attempting double-digit scoring in seven of her eight games with the team.

As a reserve player, Mabrey has the key role in the offense when she is on the court. I expect her to score 15-20 points again on Tuesday.

Las Vegas Aces -12 (-112) vs. Chicago Sky โ€“ 0.5 units

I’m not a huge fan of getting double-digit points on the Aces, as they’re only 12-20 overall against the spread this season, but given Chicago’s recent struggles, I’ll have to do it in this matchup.

Not only have the Sky lost six games in a row, but they are ranked 11th in the WNBA’s net rating since the Olympic break (-9.4).

This is no coincidence.

Chicago made an interesting deal before the break, sending Mabrey – one of the team’s best players – to the Sun. Chicago has not been able to integrate new players as quickly as it would have liked and has been ranked 10th in the league in offensive rating since the trade.

That’s a big problem when you’re going against a Las Vegas offense that can score at will and has the second-highest offensive rating in the WNBA this season.

Even though the Aces haven’t been great against the spread all season, they are 7-10 ATS at home and the Sky are just 8-15 ATS as underdogs.

Until Chicago shows it can win a game, I have to back the home favorite.
