We have an exciting four game WNBA DFS slate today. You’ve probably read me before and have said “I wish he wouldn’t name every single player”, to which I would reply “that is Tout-101, my friend”. But I’ll be selective today. I would also pay zero attention to ownership as it should be spread out with no obvious chalk spots.
Atlanta Dream Guards
Renee Montgomery is too cheap on FanDuel.That is the extent of my interest in Atlanta guards in a difficult matchup vs. the Mystics.
Atlanta Dream Forwards
Jessica Breland is too cheap for the upside and the only play that interests me. It’s a tough matchup but the game is at home, which should help.
Washington Mystic Forwards
Elena Delle Donne keeps losing minutes to blow outs. This is a strong matchup for her, however. I would rate her as the third stud. I love Latoya Sanders on FanDuel. Atlanta struggles to rebound the ball. This is a smash spot for her.
Washington Mystic Guards
Kristi Tolliver and Aerial Atkins are too cheap on FanDuel. I have minimal interest in them on DraftKings. I like Tolliver over Atkins. Tolliver in road games is a thing as the coach tends to lean on her.
Chicago Sky Forwards
Hard Pass. The matchup sucks. If anything, maybe Jantel Lavender
Chicago Sky Guards
If you are game stacking Courtney VanderSloot and Diamond DeShields make sense, otherwise no interest.
Connecticut Sun Forwards
Jonquel Jones: yes. It’s either Jones or Howard as the top plays on the slate. Great matchup, usage, game pace… it’s all there. Alyssa Thomas: I don’t like her priced so close to Jones when Jones has such a higher ceiling. That being said it’s Chicago and it’s a great matchup.
Connecticut Sun Guards
Jasmine Thomas price is cash worthy on this slate. I love her here in a great matchup. She started to come alive last game. I can see an explosion. The matchup is just as good for Courtney Williams too.
LA Sparks Forwards
The Sparks have been blown out two games in a row with barely any effort. Now they travel to Phoenix to play the slowest place team in the league. Candace Parker’s price on DraftKings is too cheap. I will play her but I do not blame you if you do not.
LA Sparks Guards
Chelsea Gary on FanDuel is too cheap. I expect she sees the all minutes she can handle here in a game they need to win. Other than that no Sparks guards for me.
Phoenix Mercury Guards
Yvonne Turner is in Europe while Diana Taurasi is still out. This makes Lelani Mitchell and Briann January minutes secure. Those two are my favorite inexpensive guards on the slate. As always the top guard play is DeWanna Bonner. I hope people do not play her after her bust earlier this week.
Phoenix Mercury Forwards
What’s wrong with Brittney Griner? She has struggled all year and you wonder if she is hiding an injury. It’s actually not a bad spot but it’s a four game slate so it’s difficult to play her.
Indiana Fever Guards
Don’t play Indiana guards on the road on a four game slate. Hope that people chase Wheeler.
Indiana Fever Forwards
This entirely depends on Natalie Achonwa. If she plays I have no interest in anybody. If she is out, Theresa McCowan is way too cheap on FanDuel. This is the last game so we will not know if Achonwa is playing in time. Achonwa was upgraded to questionable last game and maybe close to playing. It’s a tough call.
Seattle Storm Forwads
Natasha Howard is one of the top two plays on the slate. Indiana’s front court stinks. Also, Alysha Clark specifically on FanDuel is a strong play. Do not forget about Mercedes Russell either. Indiana cannot rebound.
Seattle Storm Guards
Jewel Lloyd in a GPP is fine. Without Canada her usage is massive. Shavonte Zellous in a GPP is fine. She started last game and there is a scenario where she could get 25 minutes.
Cash Core: Natasha Howard, Jonquel Jones, DeWanna Bonner, Lelani Mitchell, Briann January, Alysha Clark (FD), Zellous, Sanders (FD) Parker (DK)
