A highly anticipated matchup ahead, the Atlanta Dream (24-13, 12-5 home) will host A'ja Wilson and the Las Vegas Aces (25-14, 11-9 away) in the ATL.

With two weeks of the regular WNBA season remaining, the Aces and Dream are tied for the second seed. Although the Aces clinched a playoff berth, seeding counts heading into the playoffs.

Tabbed as 3.5-point spread and -160 moneyline favorites, the Dream are fresh off two consecutive crucial victories over the Minnesota Lynx and New York Liberty. Led by Allisha Gray and Rhyne Howard, the Dream have a stacked roster. That includes role and bench players.

After a tumultuous start to the season, the Aces are riding an 11-game winning streak, and they get their third straight game on the road. Fueled by WNBA MVP candidate A'ja Wilson, the Aces are 2-0 against the Dream this season.

Aces, Dream, Fight For Playoff Seeding

For the second matchup, the Connecticut Sun (9-28, 3-16 away) will face the Dallas Wings (9-29, 5-15 home) on the road. Having already faced a slew of injuries, rookie star Paige Bueckers is questionable (illness) to lace up today. Featuring two of the bottom tier teams in the WNBA, both have been eliminated from the playoffs. However, the Sun have shown promise, winning three of the last four games.

While the Sun have talent in Tina Charles, Leila Lacan, Saniya Rivers, Aneesah Morrow, and Marina Mabrey just to name a few, the Dallas Wings are suffering from serious injuries. Having signed multiple players to hardship contracts, they have lost five straight games. Even at home, the Wings are 3.5-point spread and +135 moneyline underdodgs.

As the regular season winds down, every matchup matters, including head-to-head outings. Both the Dream and Aces remain six games back of the Minnesota Lynx for the No.1 seed. However, they are just one game ahead of the Phoenix Mercury, who hold the fourth spot.

WNBA Player Props For Wednesday, August 27

Player Prop Bet #1: A'ja Wilson

A'ja Wilson 2025 WNBA Stats

GP: 35 | PPG: 23.1 | FG: 49 % | FT: 85.2 % | 3PT: 32.7 % | REB: 10.1 | AST: 3.1 | STL: 1.6 | BLK: 2.2

• OVER 23.5 Points (-120 DraftKings)

My first best bet for today, I placed one unit on Las Vegas Aces star A'ja Wilson to record over 23.5 points against the Atlanta Dream.

A 23.5 player prop point line may seem a bit high, however, this is a crucial game for the Aces. 14-3 since the WNBA All-Star break, Wilson has been a crucial part of their success.

The second team to clinch a playoff spot aside from the Lynx, Wilson is undoubtedly a strong MVP candidate. Since the break, the former South Carolina Gamecock is averaging 23.8 points, shooting 49.8 percent from the field, 43.5 percent from three, and 88.8 percent from the free-throw line.

It gets better. Wilson is averaging a season best 24.8 points in August, signaling she's at full health after experiencing injuries this season. In 12 games this month, she's shooting 48.7 percent from the field, 44.4 percent from beyond the arc, and 88.2 percent from the charity stripe.

The WNBA's second leading scorer (23.1 PPG) behind Napheesa Collier, Wilson leads the league in FGA (16.5), FTA (7.5), FTM (6.4), and ranks second in field goals made per game (8.1). Top 20 in minutes per game (31), her production has only increased.

Why A'ja Wilson Is A 2025 WNBA MVP Candidate

Wilson has put up monstrous performances this month, recording 30+ points three times in the last five games. Averaging 28.2 points per game over the last six games, I'm expecting A'ja Wilson to be heavily involved today.

Although her shot volume has been inconsistent this month, we've seen Wilson take as many as 24 shots against the Seattle Storm. Now she faces a Dream team, where she's historically soared over this prop line against.

Clearing this prop line twice, Wilson has recorded 24 and 32 points against Atlanta this season. Averaging 28 points in both matchups, she's averaging 21 field goal attempts, and 6.5 free-throw attempts alone!

Not to mention, A'ja is shooting 50 percent from the field, and 33.3 percent from deep against the Dream this season.

Tonight isn't an easy matchup for Wilson, who will have to play through Brionna Jones and Brittney Griner in the frontcourt. Allowing the second least points to centers, Wilson did move to the five with the acquisition of NaLyssa Smith.

Aside from Wilson, only Shakira Austin (28 points) has been the ONLY center to clear this line since June 20.

Final WNBA Player Prop Betting Prediction: A'ja Wilson OVER 23.5 Points (-120 DraftKings)

Leading the WNBA in points per game (28.2) over the last six games, Wilson's increased productivity, shot volume, and efficiency is hard to ignore. Plus, she's attempting more outside shots, which is a part of her game that's evolved over the years.

Recording 24 and 18 field goal attempts against Atlanta, I'm not fading Wilson now. Especially when the stakes are high, and both teams continue to fight for the same playoff spot. If we remember, it was A'ja Wilson who drained a 12-foot shot to give the Aces the 74-72 victory with 12 seconds left last matchup against Atlanta.

• I'm taking A'ja Wilson to record over 23.5 points today. She's cleared this bet in six straight games against the Dream, and two of the top teams will go head-to-head. Recently named Player of the Week for the fifth time this season, expect Wilson to find success against a Dream team that allows opponents to shoot 61.8 percent in the restricted area.

Player Prop Bet #2: Maddy Siegrist

Maddy Siegrist 2025 WNBA Stats

GP: 20 | PPG: 12.1 | FG: 49.2 % | FT: 72.3  % | 3PT: 29.8 % | REB: 4.7 | AST: 0.6 | STL: 0.7 | BLK: 0.7

• OVER 13.5 Points (-135 DraftKings)

My second best bet for today, I placed one unit on Dallas Wings forward Maddy Siegrist to record over 13.5 points against the Connecticut Sun.

Having missed 18 games of the 2025 WNBA season with a knee injury, Siegrist is back and action for the Dallas Wings.

Let's face it, it's been another down year for the Wings, who continue to pile up injuries. Having already lost Ty Harris to a season ending injury, you can add JJ Quinerly and Li Yueru to that list. Not to mention, Arike Ogunbowale remains out for the Wings, and Paige Bueckers is questionable (illness) to play today.

According to Ballislife writer and Dallas reporter Grant Afseth, Paige Bueckers did participate in practice today. Riding a five-game losing streak, that leaves Siegrist and Bueckers to lead the pack, that's if she plays.

Signing several players to hardship contracts, the Wings' offense has been abysmal.  Ranking No. 10 in offensive rating (101.5), the Wings score 81.5 points per game. However, it's been a different story over the last three games.

Averaging just 73.7 points per game as a team over that span, it's been Maddy Siegrist who's led the way in scoring for Dallas over the last two games.

While Maddy is a crucial player, it says something about this Dallas offense. Recording 12 and 16 points against the Seattle Storm and Golden State Valkyries, that's nothing to be underestimated. Both are top six in terms of defensive rating.

Why Maddy Siegrist Can Crush This Player Prop Bet Today

With injuries, bettors have seen Siegrist's production increase, averaging 12 FGA over the last two games. Logging 29 and 26 minutes over the last two, Siegrist has cleared this player prop line in four of the last six games.

Not to mention, she's often low on the block for cleanup, but with height, presents scoring versatility for the Wings. Without Bueckers, I would expect this prop line to increase massively.

Rolling with a starting lineup of Paige Bueckers, Maddy Siegrist, Luisa Geiselsoder, Grace Berger, and Hayley Jones, the Wings need a volume shooter to step up. In this case, it's going to be Bueckers and Siegrist.

She now get's a Connecticut Sun team, who's improved massively on the defensive end. However, this is a reasonable matchup for Siegrist, who faces a Sun team that allows the third most points for forwards.

To back that up, Liberty forward Breanna Stewart recently dropped 19 points against the Sun. Last week, Washington Mystics' duo Kiki Iriafen and Sonia Citron recorded 13 and 19 points against Connecticut.

Through a stretch in August, Elizabeth Williams (12 points), Cecilia Zandalasini (17 points), A'ja Wilson (32 points), Rickea Jackson (20 points), and Satou Sabally (23 points) all soared over this betting prop line against Connecticut.

Final WNBA Player Prop Betting Prediction: Maddy Siegrist OVER 13.5 Points (-135 DraftKings)

Facing Connecticut just once back on May 27, Siegrist scored 12 points on 6-12, and 0-4 3-point shooting in 23 minutes. Sure, the Sun have defensive dogs in Saniya Rivers and Leila Lacan. However, I'm only expecting her minutes and production to increase.

Averaging 33 minutes over the last six games, Siegrist has soared over this player prop bet in all four games logging this many minutes on the season. In fact, she's averaged 19.2 points per game in all games over 33 minutes played.

• I'm taking Maddy Siegrist to record over 13.5 points today.Shooting nearly 73 percent from the restricted area, opponents are shooting over 65 percent from there against Connecticut. Not to mention, Siegrist is shooting well over 40 percent in the paint and from the mid-range.  Averaging 15.3 points per game in August, Siegrist accounts for nearly 20 percent of the Wings' offensive this month.

Spread Bet: Connecticut Sun vs Dallas Wings

Connecticut Sun ATS Record: 20-16-1
Dallas Wings ATS Record: 17-21

• Connecticut Sun -3.5 (-110 FanDuel)

My third best bet for today, I placed one unit on the Connecticut Sun to cover the 3.5 favorable point spread against the Dallas Wings.

Let's face it, the Sun may only have nine total wins on the season, but this is a fun team to watch. Now that the team has made trades and has full health, this is a vastly different squad compared to the first half of the season.

With a healthy Marina Mabrey, the Sun and Rachid Meziane have moved rookie Aneesah Morrow into the starting lineup. Is there enough time to talk about Leila Lacan and Saniya Rivers? Considered two of the most promising rookies in the WNBA, both are impactful two-way players.

Given Connecticut has nine wins on the season, they bolstered their frontcourt with Aaliyah Edwards, and have won four games in the last 14 days.

With a 20-16-1 record against the spread, I can't say enough good aspects about Connecticut. With a bright future ahead, they are 6-0 ATS over the last six games. That includes large 14, six, and and 6.5 underdog spreads wins against the Liberty, Mystics and Fever.

Why The Connecticut Sun Can Cover The Spread Against The Dallas Wings

Not to mention, the Sun came within two points of defeating the reigning champion New York Liberty in Monday's 81-79 loss. With four players scoring in double-figures for the Sun, has Lacan finally been unleashed? This Connecticut team has more grit and hustle than some of the top tier teams.

10-9 ATS on the road, the Sun have improved quite drastically on the defensive end. Although the offense has improved, Connecticut ranks third in defensive rating (97.5) over the last five games. Plus, they boasts the third best net rating in the WNBA (6.5) over that span.

Even over the last 10 games, the Sun remain a top five team on the defensive end. Now, they face an injury riddled Dallas team, who's dropped to No. 12 in offensive (99.3), and defensive rating (112.3) over the last 10 games.

Holding the second worst net rating (-13.1) over that span, the Wings hold the worst net rating over the last five games (-16.5).

Final WNBA Player Prop Betting Prediction: Connecticut Sun -3.5 (-110 FanDuel)

Plus, they are one of the least efficient teams on the offensive end, ranking No. 12 in 3-point percentage (31.4 %), shooting 41.9 percent from the field. Aside from Paige Bueckers, this team has struggled under a head coach, players, and injuries.

Although both teams have an equal nine wins, both the Sun and Wings are far apart. The Sun are trending upward, while the Wings are 0-2 ATS in over their last two games.

• I'm laying the points with the Connecticut Sun today. Covering in six straight games, they are 0-2 SU against Dallas, and 1-1 ATS on the season. However, they haven't faced each other since June 20, and both rosters are vastly different. Look for Connecticut to remain fearless on the road, and continue their hot streak.
