Liberty vs. Fever Best WNBA Prop Bet
- Caitlin Clark UNDER 21.5 Points (-122) via FanDuel
It may be blasphemous to take the UNDER on a Caitlin Clark points total, but let's remember that she's averaging 19.3 points through her first three games, two points under her set total for Saturday afternoon. Not only that, but she has a tough test in a Liberty team that ranks third in the WNBA in Defensive Rating (92.7). Clark will undoubtedly still have a strong game, but I think her points total is a few too high.
Liberty vs. Fever Prediction and Pick
Instead of betting a side in this one, I'm looking at the total, and I'm going to take the UNDER. While the season is still young, early signs indicate these are the two best defensive teams in the WNBA this season. Heading into this matchup, they rank first and third in defensive rating, allowing a combined 151.0 points per game.
The strong defensive play by both teams has a chance to slow down the two stars for both teams and if that holds to be true, we could be in for a low-scoring affair.
Pick: UNDER 170.5 (-110)
