2026 WNBA All-Star Weekend is just two days away, so let's finish out the first half strong.
First up, the Phoenix Mercury (9-18, 5-9 away) will face the Los Angeles Sparks (10-15, 5-7 home) on the road. Both teams are well below .500 and remain out of playoff contention. While the Sparks hold a 2-0 regular season lead, they are riding a four-game losing streak. Despite Kelsey Plum's continued absence, the Sparks are tabbed as 1.5-point favorites today.
Next, Olivia Miles and the Minnesota Lynx (21-6, 11-2 away) will play Flau'jae Johnson and the Seattle Storm (6-22, 4-9 home). Seattle continues its full rebuild mode, while the Lynx headline the WNBA's best record. Both teams will meet for the second time in two days, as Kayla McBride and Miles combined for 65 points in Minnesota's 105-102 victory over Seattle on Monday. Today, the Lynx are -10.5-point favorites on the road. For the first time all season, Lynx star Napheesa Collier is probable.
This evening, the Chicago Sky (9-17, 4-10 away) get the New York Liberty (14-12, 7-5 home) in Brooklyn. Skylar Diggins remains out for the Sky and both Courtney Vandersloot and Natasha Cloud will face their former team. Despite dropping four of their last five games, the Liberty are 7.5-point favorites at home.
Set to take place in the nation's capital, the A'ja Wilson and the Las Vegas Aces (18-7, 11-2 away) will face Kiki Iriafen and the Washington Mystics (13-12, 5-6 home). Owning the WNBA's second-best record, the Aces will play the Mystics for the first time in 2026 and enter today's game as 6.5-point spread favorites on the road.
Later this evening, the Connecticut Sun (7-19, 3-9 away) will match up against Caitlin Clark and the Indiana Fever (16-10, 10-5 home) on the road. Connecticut has found a groove, winning two of its last three games. The Sun get the Fever, which are 4-1 over the last five games and are 10.5-point favorites tonight. All eyes will be on Caitlin Clark, who will appear on the Deluxe Edition of NBA 2K27.
Last, Azzi Fudd and the Dallas Wings (17-9, 9-5 away) will visit the Portland Fire (11-15, 6-6 home) on the road. Paige Bueckers is a game-time decision and the Wings dropped a heartbreaker to the Liberty on Monday. Despite Portland leading the series 1-0, Dallas is a 5.5-point favorite on the road.

Here are my best bests, player prop picks, and predictions for the July 22 WNBA games.
For my first player prop bet today, I locked in Jonquel Jones to record over 1.5 made 3-pointers against the Sky.
Jones is one of the best 3-point shooting, floor-spacing bigs in the WNBA. I can't fade this for +100 odds, especially given the matchup.
Named a WNBA All-Star reserve, Jones has been a bright spot for the Liberty, as she's averaging 14.8 points, 9.2 rebounds, and 2.5 assists, while shooting 49.4% from the field and 40.5% from beyond the arc.
Under head coach Chris DeMarco, Jones has been heavily utilized beyond the arc. Not only is she averaging the most 3-point attempts of her career (4.6 3PA), but she is also shooting a career-best 38% of her shots from the 3-point line. Plus, it's the second consecutive season that she's shooting over 40% from deep.
Jones' usage rate (20.6%) has dipped some, but she's still been very effective for New York. Her 39.7% 3-point rate is the highest of her career, and she's playing heavy minutes. Logging an average of 31.2 minutes over the last five games, we've seen Jones stay out of complete foul trouble, for the most part. She's logged 30+ minutes in four of the last five games, including 33 in New York's 99-98 overtime victory against the Dallas Wings.
Jones' 3-point volume varies. However, she's averaging 4.6 attempts and 1.8 made threes over the last five games. In 2026, she's putting up 2.5 3PM on 6.2 3PA.
Considered one of the most productive bigs from the 3-point line, I like Jones' matchup today with the Sky. Chicago is near the bottom of the standings, ranking No. 11 in defensive rating (107.6), but allow opponents to shoot just 30.7% from beyond the arc.
The good news is I like her matchup with Kamilla Cardoso here as the Sky allow the second-most points to centers per game, including 2.8 3-point attempts per game.
For my second-best player prop bet, I'm taking Aliyah Boston to record over 21.5 points and rebounds against the Sun.
Named a WNBA All-Star starter, Boston has been as consistent as any big could be. Through 23 games, she's averaging a career-high 17.1 points and 8.6 rebounds per game (25.7 points and rebounds).
I like this from a points perspective alone, as Boston has elevated her game to the perimeter and is shooting a career-best 46.9% from beyond the arc. In July, she's averaging 3.4 made threes, 17.8 points and 8.8 rebounds (26.6 points and rebounds).
Mind you, Boston has been this productive, even alongside Kelsey Mitchell and Caitlin Clark's 45-point performance the other night. Under head coach Steph White, Boston's averaging a career-best 26.5% usage rate. That includes Monique Billings in the lineup.
Tonight, Boston faced Connecticut, who has just seven wins on the season, and will remain without Aaliyah Edwards (Knee), and possibly Brittney Griner (Knee), who's listed as questionable. That leaves Olivia Nelson-Ododa and Aneesah Morrow (who hasn't played since July 2) to handle the frontcourt duties.
I do believe this line is set too low, as Boston has recorded back-to-back 22 PR games against the Liberty and Valkyries. Mind you, that's two talented teams in the WNBA.
Today, Boston gets a Sun team that allows 37.5 paint points per game, although they've been fairly solid defensively against centers. However, there's too many question marks when it comes to injuries, especially to Connecticut's frontcourt.
Plus, am I really going to fade Boston, who's cleared this player prop line in seven straight games? Over that span, she's averaging 26.9 points and rebounds, including back-to-back 30 PR games against the Mercury and Aces.
In one lone game against Connecticut in 2026, Boston erupted for 13 points and 11 rebounds in 32.1 minutes. Logging 30+ minutes is huge, especially when it was a 10-point spread.
Let's lock this in. Boston cleared this line, even with Clark and Mitchell carried away with the game last time against the Sun. At times last game, she was walking into the paint and finished with a double-double. While the Sun are a middle-of-the-road rebounding team (49.6% rebounding rate), there's a reason why the Fever lead the WNBA in rebound percentage (53.4%).
For my third-best prop bet, I locked in Jessica Shepard to record over 14.5 points against the Fire.
Named as a first-time WNBA All-Star, Shepard has been lights out for the Wings this season. Leading the league in rebounds, she's averaging 14.8 points and 11.9 rebounds on the season.
It's safe to say Shepard has been one of the most consistent players this season, recording six straight double-doubles. This player prop is in line with her season average, but she's been putting up just over 16 points per game in July.
Shepard has been a dominant inside big, and if Paige Bueckers is ruled out, she should have an increased role. We are talking about a Portland Fire team that gives up the most points to centers in the WNBA. In July, bigs such as Shakira Austin (19 points), Brittney Griner (20 points), and A'ja Wilson (32) all cleared 14.5 points.
Keeping the matchup in mind, it's hard to fade Shepard, who boasts a 62.8% true shooting percentage, and averages 10.8 paint points alone. Portland allows nearly 41 paint points per game this season, and Shepard already put up 18 and 24 points against Portland this season.
Portland is the newest expansion team, but I don't fully trust its frontcourt. The Minnesota Lynx recently scored 101 points against the Fire, 54 of which came inside. While Emily Engstler is a Defensive Player of the Year candidate, it will be interesting if Portland continues to rock with Serah Williams in the starting lineup.
