The WNBA offers a single game on Saturday’s schedule, but the Minnesota Lynx and Las Vegas Aces should be a dandy. Saturday’s WNBA player props target the scoring prowess of Napheesa Collier and Kayla McBride, and the stout Lynx defense, possibly limiting Aces star A’ja Wilson.“MVPhee” is a ruthless, versatile scorer, averaging 23.8 points and 3.6 assists per game this season, with a 25-point, two-assists gem against the Aces eight days ago.bleed 37 points per game in the paint, a weakness Collier’s elite inside game should exploit. If they double-team her, Collier is surrounded by snipers like Kayla McBride to complement her scoring. At -105, this prop is a steal for a player who’s cleared 26.5 points + assists in 60% of her games this season.can be inconsistent, but we’re getting a good price for a scoring prop that McBride has cleared in five of her previous seven contests. Like Collier, McBride is a versatile scorer. She’s shooting 42% from the field, 38% from long range, and makes 93% of her nearly three attempts from the charity stripe. The Aces' defense is inconsistent. They’ve allowed 83 points per game across their last five and 50 ppg during that stretch against guards like McBride. McBride should play 30+ minutes. She’s coming off a season-high 24 points against the New York Liberty. She’s scored 14+ in three of her previous five road games, and I’m betting on the value her scoring prop provides.is one of the best scorers in the WNBA, but she’s up against the top defense in the league and will have difficulties clearing her 26.5 points & assists prop today. Minnesota has allowed 79 points per game across the past five. During that span, they’ve allowed a measly 42% shooting from inside the arc and 35% shooting from downtown. I expect the Lynx to double-team Wilson and clog the passing lanes. She’ll get her buckets, but Vegas shooting only 42% from the field and 32% from downtown won’t add many dimes to Wilson’s final tally. Wilson averages 22 points and three assists per game. Minnesota held her to just 18 points & assists on July 25, and I’m betting they keep the reigning MVP to below 27 points plus assists.: Our team of experts has thoroughly researched and handpicked each product that appears on our website.
