It's a beautiful Sunday in August, last one of the year. We've got a four game slate in the WNBA and I've already got three plays locked in. It's going to be a good day.
Let's jump right into my favorite props tonight.

Today's Best Bets
Napheesa Collier o1.5 3s (+115) | Lucky Rebel
The WNBA is about to go on pause for the Women's FIBA World Cup and tonight's games will be the last until September 17th. That being said, we've got a big time matchup to send us into the break.
The Minnesota Lynx are in Atlanta to take on Angel Reese and the Dream tonight. The two teams have met twice this year, splitting the two meetings all the way back in May.
Napheesa Collier is back at 100% and she's been absolutely great for the Lynx this year. Collier is averaging 18.1 points, 7.4 rebounds and 2.8 assists per game this year. She's shooting 48% from beyond the arc and she averages 1.7 made 3s per game.
The Atlanta Dream rank 15th in opponent 3-point percentage and Collier missed both previous games against the Dream this year. Going back to last year, Collier averaged 29.0 points, 7.4 rebounds and 6.5 assists against the Dream.
Collier's shooting 50% from outside over her last 10 games and tonight's matchup with the Dream might be the best one yet.
Nneka Ogwumike o24.5 P/R (-110) | Lucky Rebel
Nneka Ogwumike's retirement tour is in full swing and after a big night in front of her home crowd, she's back in Seattle. The only other city she's ever played for. It almost feels too perfect.
Nneka leads the team in both points (16.8 PPG) and rebounds (8.9 RPG). She leads the team in minutes play and she's been incredible even at 36.
The Seattle Storm rank 10th in points allowed, 15th in rebounds allowed, 12th in opponent offensive rebound rate and 11th in opponent free throw rate.
Since 2022, Nneka's played here in Seattle 5 times. She's averaging 22.4 points, 7.0 rebounds and 2.4 stocks per game. She's shooting nearly 60% from the field in these games and with this being her last game in Seattle, I would't be surprised to see her go off tonight.
Los Angeles Sparks ML (-115) | Lucky Rebel
The Sparks got a huge win over the Washington Mystics the other night and it was on the back of Nneka. This team's playing with a little more emotion with her retirement looming and tonight in Seattle, it just feels like the right spot.
The two have met twice already this year, splitting the two games and with both teams winning on the road. Both games were fairly low scoring and Seattle's young superstar center, Dominique Malonga's struggled in this matchup.

You may know me as ‘VSaaauce’. I’ve been a die hard hoops fan my entire life. I’ve been betting on the NBA/NCAAB/NFL/MLB for six years now, each year gaining more and more knowledge about being a profitable handicapper. I’m eager to learn, and eager to pass on everything I’ve gained over the last few years. I started my Twitter page four years ago, and this community makes me so thankful I did. Outside of sports and handicapping, I enjoy traveling, hoopin, a strong espresso and I’m currently studying to obtain my MD. I’m all about the vibes, good vibes only.
