WNBA Best Bets for June 7: Kelsey Plum and Skylar Diggins Player Prop Picks

It's Sunday, and the WNBA is back in full swing. There are two games on the slate today, so let's take a look at my favorite player prop bets.

There are two games scheduled for today. The Chicago Sky (4-6, 3-2) will face the Toronto Tempo (5-5, 2-2 home) on the road. It's the second time these two teams will match up, as the Tempo got the best of the Sky last time around, 111-104. While Brittney Sykes finished with 20 points, it was Nyara Sabally who delivered a career-high 29 points. For Chicago, Skylar Diggins and Sydney Taylor combined for 50 points.

Today, the Tempo are listed as 2.5-point favorites as oddsmakers are expecting a close matchup.

Next up, the Portland Fire (6-6, 2-2 away) will match up against the Los Angeles Sparks (4-6, 1-5 home) on the road. It's the first time both teams will face each other as Portland is the WNBA's newest expansion franchise. The Sparks are griding a three-game losing streak and have a 1-5 record at home. On the flip side, Portland has been one of the most shocking teams of the season as they are .500.

With a 2-2 record on the road, the Fire have lost two straight. However, the books are all-in on the Sparks as Los Angeles is a 7.5-point favorite.

The 2026 WNBA Commissioner's Cup is underway, and Cup games will continue through June 17. Every game is high-stakes, and point differential matters.

Here are my top player prop bets, picks, and predictions for the Sunday, June 7 WNBA games.

Kelsey Plum OVER 19.5 Points

For my first best bet for today, I place one unit on Sparks star Kelsey Plum to record over 19.5 points against the Fire.

Since returning from an ankle injury, you could hardly tell Plum suffered any setbacks this season. In her second season with the Sparks, the team may be underperforming, but Plum is putting up MVP-esque numbers.

Through just seven games, Plum is averaging 26.9 points, which is good for the top spot on the WNBA. She's also averaging 1.9 rebounds, 6.3 assists, while shooting a career-best 59.5% from the field and 44.7% from beyond the arc.

No matter the opponent, Plum has been fairly consistent aside from a 16-point performance against the Mercury. The Sparks' leading scorer, Plum, has now scored 25+ points in six of seven games this season.

Sure, this player prop line is juiced, but there's still value. The books are expecting a blowout, but even as 0-2 in the Cup standings, every point matters.

I'm locking this prop in for a few reasons. Plum is logging some significant minutes for head coach Lynne Roberts. She's logging 34.9 minutes per game, which ranks first in the WNBA. Not to mention, she boasts a 27.8% usage rate, 72.4% true shooting percentage, and 68.9% effective field goal percentage.

In 2026, Plum is averaging 15.9 field goal attempts per game and just under seven 3-pointers (6.7) per game. If I do the math here, 6.7 3-pointers at a 44.7% rate is incredible efficiency.

There's no doubt the Fire are a gritty team. But defensively, they rank twelfth in defensive rating (108.5). With Carla Leite at the helm, they've been fairly solid against guards, allowing an average of 38.1 combined points to them this season. Where I think Plum can take advantage is the fact that Portland could deploy a bigger starting lineup if Sarah Ashlee Barker is unable to lace up (Quad).

Final WNBA Player Prop Betting Prediction: Kelsey Plum OVER 19.5 Points

We saw Plum cook the Fire for 13 points in 18 minutes in the preseason. Considered a true three-level scorer, Plum has combined for 65 points over the last two games with an ankle injury in between. 41 percent of her shots come from above-the-break 3, an area where opponents are shooting 32% against the Fire. 30% of her shots additionally come from the restricted area, as Plum loves to drive downhill.

Plum is getting to the free-throw line 6.1 times per game.

• Let's lock in Kelsey Plum for over 19.5 points today. She accounts for over 30% of the Sparks' offense and should have a massive game against the Fire, who have given up 19 points to Kiki Rice and 24 to Pauline Astier this season.

Skylar Diggins OVER 15.5 Points

For my second-best bet, I sprinkled a unit on Sky guard Skylar Diggins to record over 15.5 points against the Tempo today.

It's been a rocky start for the Sky, who have dealt with injury after injury. The offense has been stagnant at times, as Chicago ranks No. 13 in offensive rating (99.9). However, 1-1 in the Commissioner's Cup standings, the Sky are very much alive.

Rookie Gabriela Jaquez is questionable to return today from injury, but Chicago excels when the offense flows through Diggins. I know the points prop line has been volatile at times, but she's coming off a 24-point performance against the Sun in which she shot 6-of-16 from the field, 2-of-3 from beyond the arc, and 10-of-11 from the free-throw line.

Diggins is a three-level scorer, and a quarter of these points can come from the line as she's had 18 attempts in the last two games.

We already saw Diggins put up 23 points against Toronto in the shootout just a few weeks ago. While her 3-point shot wasn't falling (1-6), Diggins took matters into her own hands by continuously driving downhill (6 free-throw attempts).  I'm confident in this prop as Diggins is an elite shotmaker and creates for herself when needed (especially off pick-and-rolls).

Led by Brittney Sykes, the Tempo backcourt is allowing 41.2 total points to guards per game this season. One area where Diggins could excel is the fact that they allow over 16 3-point attempts against guards as well. If Diggins scored 23 points on 1-of-6 threes, she could easily soar over this line today.

Final WNBA Player Prop Betting Prediction: Skylar Diggins OVER 15.5 Points

I do believe the books are sleeping on this line as Marine Johannés (15), Natisha Hiedeman (18), Diggins (23), and Bridget Carleton (15) have come close to this line or torched this player prop line. Toronto has struggled against guards as of late, and I'm convinced given Diggins' minutes (29.9) and usage rate (23.5%).

• 6.2 of Diggins' 15.2 points per game come in the paint, and she's attempting 3.3 threes, 12.1 shots, and 5.4 free-throw attempts per game. Let's lock in Skylar Diggins over 15.5 points as the Tempo allows the most paint points per game (44.4). 

Azurá Stevens OVER 12.5 Points + Rebounds

For my third-best bet, I'm taking Sky forward Azurá Stevens to record over 12.5 points and rebounds today.

Stevens has been limited to just five games this season since recovering from a knee injury. However, she's been in the lineup since May 23 and has been slowly ramping up production under head coach Tyler Marsh. In fact, she played a season-high 20 minutes against the Sun in the last game.

Luckily for Stevens, the Sky are off a day of rest. On Friday, we saw her tear apart Brittney Griner and Connecticut's defense, finishing with 13 points and 10 rebounds in just 20 minutes.

Now she faces a Tempo team that has lacked depth in the frontcourt due to injuries, although Isabelle Harrison is questionable to make her Tempo debut. So far, they give up 47.9 points and rebounds to forwards per game, which ranks them in the middle of the league.

Stevens stands 6'6" but can shoot like a guard from beyond the arc. She's able to stretch the floor and is averaging 22 points and rebounds this season in limited minutes.

I wouldn't read too much into Stevens' minutes. Yes, she's averaging just 17.6 per game, but I expect that to increase, barring any injury setbacks. From a rebound perspective alone, she has 15 over the last two games.

Final WNBA Player Prop Betting Prediction: Azurá Stevens OVER 12.5 Points + Rebounds

Yes, Stevens logged 10 points and rebounds against the Tempo, but that was just in 15 minutes! Shooting 3-of-7 from the field, 1-of-4 from three, and 3-of-3 from the line, I'm fully convinced she will soar over this prop line today.

Stevens can create for herself off screens and can push into the paint.  Against the Tempo the first time around, Stevens was productive in the pick-and-roll, took advantage of poor defensive rotation with corner threes, and the two-player connection with Natasha Cloud was evident.

• Let's lock in Azurá Stevens to have a big game and soar over 12.5 points and rebounds. That number seems too low, especially since she's increasing her minutes and this is a Cup game.
