Allisha Gray and the Atlanta Dream (15-10, 8-3 home) will host the Golden State Valkyries (11-13, 3-9 away) in the ATL. Set to meet for the second time this season, All-Stars Rhyne Howard and Kayla Thornton will both remain out with injury. With both teams trending in opposite directions, the Valkyries have dropped four of the last five, while the Dream have won three of the last four. 7.5-point favorites at home, the Dream sit fourth in the standings.

Set to take place in the nation's Capital, the Washington Mystics (12-13, 8-5 home) will host Angel Reese and the Chicago Sky (7-18, 3-10 away). Massive -325 moneyline favorites, the Mystics have won their last five straight matchups against the Sky. Having missed two consecutive games, Angel Reese is once again questionable. Riding a five-game losing streak, the Sky face a Mystics team that's overachieved with a young core.

Last but not least, Cameron Brink will make her return from injury as the Los Angeles Sparks (11-14, 3-8 home) will host A'ja Wilson and the Las Vegas Aces (13-13, 6-9 away). With 11 wins, the Sparks are riding a five-game win streak, while head coach Becky Hammon and the Aces continue to tweak their starting five. Following a massive win streak, the Sparks are 2.5-point spread underdogs at home. Once again Kelsey Plum will face her former team in the Aces.

WNBA Player Props For Tuesday, July 29

Player Prop Bet #1: Jackie Young

Jackie Young 2025 WNBA Stats

GP: 26 | PPG: 16.9 | FG: 44.7 % | FT: 92 % | 3PT: 32.3  % | REB: 4.0 | AST: 4.2 | STL: 1.2 | BLK: 2.3

• OVER 15.5 Points (-115 DraftKings)

My first best WNBA bet for today, I placed one unit on Aces All-Star guard Jackie Young to record over 15.5 points against the Los Angeles Sparks.

The Aces second leading scorer behind A'ja Wilson, Young is averaging 16.9 points through 26 games.

Yes, the Aces are going through it, even so much, Becky Hammon swapped Jewell Loyd in the starting lineup for Kierstan Bell. With that, the most consistent players on the Aces roster have been Wilson and Young.

From a betting perspective, Young has been a bit inconsistent.However, she's coming off a 24-point eruption against the Dallas Wings, and has a fairly decent matchup today.

Why Jackie Young Can Soar Over This Player Prop Line Today

Cracking just outside the top ten in scoring, Young has averaged an impeccable 30 points in two matchups against the Sparks this season. Scoring 50 percent from the field, LA allows the fourth most points to guards.

Although she faced LA early on in the season, we've seen Young put up 34 and 26 points in their two meetings this season. Mind you, Young's seen heavy shot volume, averaging 23 field goal attempts in both outings. In fact, Young had nine free-throw attempts alone last game.

With Kelsey Plums departure (to the Sparks), someone has to step up for the Aces. We saw Jewell Loyd effective from the bench last game, however, the Aces hold the No. 7 seed at 13-13. Although inconsistencies have been there, the Aces need Young to continuously step up.

The Spark are improving, hence the five game win streak. However, they still lack defensively, ranking No. 11 in defensive rating (107.5). Sure Cameron Brink is back, however I'm expecting her to see limited minutes. After all, this is a Sparks team that allows the second most points in the WNBA (87.3).

Final WNBA Player Prop Betting Prediction: Jackie Young OVER 15.5 Points (-115 DraftKings)

Plus, teams are shooting 45.1 percent from the field against LA, and guards are averaging 43.2 points per game against the Sparks.

The Sparks have a set lineup, with Kelsey Plum and Julie Allemand in the backcourt. We've seen Young light up a Spark not once, but twice against LA, and she's soared over this player prop line in two of the last three outings!

• I'm taking Jackie Young to record over 15.5 points today. Not only is she shooting over 58 percent from the field the last three games, Sabrina Ionescu and Natasha Cloud combined for 52 points last game against LA!

Player Prop Bet #2: Sonia Citron

Sonia Citron 2025 WNBA Stats

GP: 25 | PPG: 13.6 | FG: 44.7 % | FT: 89.5 % | 3PT: 35  % | REB: 5.0 | AST: 2.2 | STL: 1.1 | BLK: 0.4

• OVER 17.5 Points + Rebounds (-114 FanDuel)

My second best bet for today, I placed one unit on Washington Mystics All-Star rookie Sonia Citron to record over 17.5 points and rebounds against the Chicago Sky.

Considering a bright, young, two-way star in the WNBA, Citron has been a large x-factor for the Mystic's success. Of course, she's come back to earth after a late June scoring run. With Shakira Austin back to full health, that dramatically changes the landscape.

Either way, Citron is a premier back door cutter, and can strike from beyond the arc. Although her scoring numbers haven't been as strong in July from a betting perspective, she impacts the box score in numerous ways.

Citron has a decent matchup against the Sky, who've been without Angel Reese the last two games. With that, Chicago is trending in the wrong direction, losing five straight games. With that, they've struggled, respectfully, ranking No. 12 in defensive rating. Not to mention, they allow the second most points to guards, and third most points in the WNBA (87.1).

Will Angel Reese Play Tonight?

Holding a -126 point differential over the losing skid, it's truly difficult to trust the Sky defense right now. Allowing 91.2 points over the last five games, Chicago has truly been unforgiving to guards. Over the last five games, the following guards have erupted against the Sky:

• Kelsey Mitchell, Fever: 35 points, 2 rebounds
• Skylar Diggins, Storm: 21 points, 7 rebounds
• Courtney Williams, Lynx: 10 points, 7 rebounds
• Kayla McBride, Lynx: 19 points, 5 rebounds

I love this player prop from a point perspective alone, especially since Citron recorded 13 points in both matchups against Chicago. Not to mention, she grabbed 9 and 8 rebounds in those outings. This time around, the Sky will be without Courtney Vandersloot and Ariel Atkins due to injury. Plus, Hailey Van Lith and Michaela Onyenwere are questionable.

Final WNBA Player Prop Betting Prediction: Sonia Citron OVER1 17.5 Points + Rebounds (-114 FanDuel)

I know Citron's scoring production has decreased, however she's coming 13 points against the Mercury last matchup. Soaring over this player prop line just once in the last five games, I simply can't ignore this matchup. Plus, Citron recorded 22 and 21 points and rebounds against the Sky this year.

The attention may be focused on the bigs—Kiki Iriafen, Shakira Austin, Angel Reese, and Kamilla Cardoso—but I like Citron in this spot.

Even with prominent rebounders in Reese and Cardoso, the Sky allow the fourth most rebounds to guards.  If anyone is known for crashing the glass and hustle plays, it's Citron.

• I'm taking Sonia Citron to record over 17.5 Points + Rebounds today. The matchup is too favorable to fade. 

Player Prop Bet #3: Jordin Canada

Jordin Canada 2025 WNBA Stats

GP: 18 | PPG 11.1 | FG: 38.2 % | FT: 76.6 % | 3PT: 27.3  % | REB: 3.6 | AST: 5.3 | STL: 1.6 | BLK: 0.2

• OVER 5.5 Assists (-130 DraftKings)

My third best WNBA bet for today, I placed one unit on Atlanta Dream guard Jordin Canada to record over 5.5 assists against the Golden State Valkyries.

Canada has emerged as one of the x-factors for the Dream, especially with Rhyne Howard out with injury. Averaging 5.3 assists on the year, we have to simply look at the numbers.

Since July 3, Canada has soared well over this player prop line in six of the last eight games! Through July, she's averaging 6.4 dimes alone!

Don't let Canada's height fool you. Considered one of the fastest guards in the WNBA at 5 foot 6, she's been aggressive for the Dream. Surrounded by immense talent, how can I fade this?

I'm not expecting this to be a high scoring game, especially since both defenses are decent. Speaking of defense, the Valkyries are a gritty team, who play the passing lanes well. Although they allow the fourth least assist among guards, the Valkyries hold the second worst defensive rating over the last five games (108).

I'm expecting increased usage for Canada without Howard in the lineup, and let's face it—she's been an assist machine lately. Averaging 6.6 assists over the last 10 games, Canada tallied nine in her lone matchup against Golden State this season.

Final WNBA Player Prop Betting Prediction: Jordin Canada OVER 5.5 Assists (-130 DraftKings)

Averaging 32.9 minutes in July, we've seen Canada record heavy minutes on multiple occasions. Logging 35+ minutes in in five games this month, Canada has crushed this prop in 7/9 games when playing at least 26 minutes.

• Without Howard in the lineup, she's tallied 6+ assists in four of the last six games! I'm taking Jordin Canada to record over 5.5 assists tonight. Let's ride the hot hand!
