First, the Atlanta Dream (24-14, 12-6 home) will host the Dallas Wings (9-30, 4-14 away) in the ATL. Tabbed as 16.5-point spread and -1400 moneyline favorites, the books view this as a lopsided matchup. Then again, the Wings are eliminated from playoff contention, and Paige Bueckers (illness) is questionable to lace up.

Their largest point spread of the season, the Dream hold the third seed, and remain just one game back of A'ja Wilson and the Las Vegas Aces for the second seed. With just six games remaining in the regular season, the Dream are fresh off a 81-75 loss against the Aces.

With a 2-1 record over their last three games, the Dream have captured victories over top teams such as the Minnesota Lynx and New York Liberty. Now they get a Wings team, who has just nine wins on the season. Riding a six-game losing streak, the season is all but over for Dallas. With a 1-9 record in the last 10 games,  the Wings are 1-2 against Atlanta this season.

Jordin Canada is questionable to return after missing time due to a hamstring injury. Starting with Bueckers, the Wings have a slew players in the injury list that include Aziaha James, JJ Quinerly, and Luisa Geiselsoder.

Fever, Sparks Battle For WNBA Playoff Seeding

For the late-night matchup, the Indiana Fever (20-18, 9-9 away) will square off against the Los Angeles Sparks (17-19, 7-11 home) in Los Angeles. The Fever remain without Caitlin Clark, who's been sidelined with a groin injury. In addition, losing Sophie Cunningham, Aari McDonald, and Sydney Colson to season ending injuries was tough blow.

With a 20-18 regular season record, the Fever have managed, even through the signing of multiple hardship contracts. Notably, this Fever team is coming off an impressive 95-75 victory over the Seattle Storm. Given Odyssey Sims and Kelsey Mitchell combined for 43 points, the books are expecting a close matchup tonight.

This is an important one for both teams, as the Fever have a thin lead over the Storm for the sixth seed. As for the Sparks, they are holding on for dear life. With eight regular season games remaining, LA is 1.5 games back of the Golden State Valkyries for the eighth and final playoff seed.

Slim 1.5-point spread and -125 moneyline favorites at home, the Sparks are 3-0 against the Fever this season, and are coming off a 92-84 loss against the Phoenix Mercury.

With a highly anticipated matchup ahead, the stakes are high for both the Fever and Sparks.

WNBA Player Props For Friday, August 29

Player Prop Bet #1: Brionna Jones

Brionna Jones 2025 WNBA Stats

GP: 38 | PPG: 12.9 | FG: 53.3 % | FT: 75.8 % | 3PT: 27.3 % | REB: 7.2 | AST: 2.3 | STL: 1.1 | BLK: 0.8

• OVER 11.5 Points (-108 FanDuel)

My first best bet for today, I placed one unit on Atlanta Dream forward Brionna Jones to record over 11.5 points against the Dallas Wings.

While there's always risk of a blowout matchup, the value was too great to pass up this player prop.

This is an excellent matchup for Bri Jones, who faces a Wings team that allows the most points to forwards. With numerous injuries, the frontcourt continues to shrink for Dallas. Losing Luisa Geiselsoder this game to injury, Diamond Miller and Myisha Hines-Allen will hold down the frontcourt.

Losing Li Yueru to injury was an massive loss to the Wings, and now they will lack size against two of the best bigs in the league—Brionna Jones and Brittney Griner.

The Wings already lack size and rim-protection, so this should be a great matchup for Jones. Notably, she's cleared this line in two of three games against Dallas this season, averaging 12 points.

Why Brionna Jones Can Clear This Player Prop Bet Today

With this player prop line valued at nearly plus money, Jones has put up some massive numbers for the Dream. Matching a season-high 19 points against the Aces on Wednesday, Jones has scored 17, 18, and 15 points against the Liberty, Storm, and Mercury this month..

From a betting perspective, betting on Jones points prop has been a bit tumultuous. However, she scored 14 points in 27 minutes against Dallas on July 30, and 12 points in 31 minutes on June 24.

I love this prop even more that Griner has come off the bench in seven straight games after suffering a neck injury. Following the injury, Griner's minutes continue to dwindle.

Jones is having a productive month, shooting 60.6 percent from the field, and averaging 13.7 points in August. While her 3-point shot isn't a large part of her game, she is shooting a season-high 37.5 percent beyond the arc this month.

Final WNBA Player Prop Betting Prediction: Brionna Jones OVER 11.5 Points (-108 FanDuel)

This month, we've seen several WNBA forwards have success against a depleted Wings team from a scoring perspective.

• Dearica Hamby, Los Angeles Sparks (13 points)
• A'ja Wilon, Las Vegas Aces (23 points)
• Lexie Hull, Indiana Fever (20 points)
• Kiki Iriafen, Washington Mystics (23 points)
• Emma Meesseman, New York Liberty (13 points)
• Leonie Fiebich, New York Liberty (14 points)

These are all players that have well cleared over this prop line this month against Dallas.

• I'm taking Brionna Jones to score over 11.5 points today. She's shooting 63.6 percent from the restricted area, a spot where teams bully the Wings (63.1 percent). Logging 27+ minutes in all three matchups against Dallas this season, she should feast inside today. 

Player Prop Bet #2: Kelsey Mitchell

Kelsey Mitchell 2025 WNBA Stats

GP: 38 | PPG: 20.7 | FG: 45.6 % | FT: 77.9 % | 3PT: 40.1 % | REB: 1.8 | AST: 3.4 | STL: 0.8 | BLK: 0.2

• OVER 21.5 Points (+100 DraftKings)

My second best bet for today, I placed one unit on Indiana Fever star Kelsey Mitchell to record over 21.5 points against the Los Angeles Sparks.

I truly can't figure out for the life of me how this player prop bet is valued at plus money (+100). In the absence of Caitlin Clark, along with several other guards, Mitchell has stepped up.

When I mean step up, she's certainly on the fringe of MVP talks. Now in her eighth season with the Fever, Mitchell is averaging career-best stats in points (20.7 PPG), and is shooting well over 40 percent from beyond the arc for the second consecutive season.

A crafty, yet versatile guard, Mitchell is among the most athletic in the WNBA. That includes her high-arching rainbow threes, and the ability to cut back door. Considered one of the most consistent, high-producing players in the WNBA, I'm not fading this player prop today.

Recording 21+ points in four straight games, Mitchell is averaging 27.2 points per game over that span against the Storm, Lynx, and Sun. Mind you, she's performing at a high level against elite defenses in the league!

While the Fever have immense talent in Aliyah Boston, newly signed Odyssey Sims, and so forth, it always starts and ends with Mitchell.

Why Kelsey Mitchell Is Considered An MVP Candidate

Ranking third behind Napheesa Collier and A'ja Wilson in points per game (20.7 PPG) and FGM per game (16.1), Mitchell is among the elite scorers in the WNBA. Over the last five games, she's averaging the second-most points per game in the league (25.2 PPG), and is shooting 46.6 percent from the field. and 53.6 percent from three over that span.

I do believe this player prop line is set too low, and value is phenomenal. You take a player such as Kelsey Mitchell, who's having her most productive month of the season (23.1 PPG). In addition, her shot volume (17.5 FGA), 3-point volume (7.0 3pA), and free-throw attempts (5.8 FTA) have only increased in August.

Making her case for MVP, Mitchell has been far more consistent and efficient post WNBA All-Star break. in 15 games since, she's averaging 23.1 points per game, a 21 percent increase prior to All-Star weekend. Her 3-point percentages have spiked over 21 percent to 44.4 percent in that span.

Now she gets a Sparks team in a must-win scenario tonight. This is a prime matchup for Mitchell, especially given the Sparks lack on the defensive end. While LA remains of the toughest teams on the offensive end, they rank No.12 in defensive rating (109.1).

Final WNBA Player Prop Betting Prediction: Kelsey Mitchell OVER 21.5 Points (+100 DraftKings)

Even worse, Los Angeles allows the most-points to guards, even with Kelsey Plum at the helm for the Sparks. Over the season, guards make the second most 3-pointers, which is in Mitchell's favor.

In three games against the Sparks, Mitchell has averaged 24.3 points, shooting 50 percent from the field, and 51.9 percent from beyond the arc. Putting up 17.3 shots per game, I'm expecting Mitchell to continue to remain heavily involved tonight.

Two games prior, Paige Bueckers exploded for a career-high 44 points against LA.

• I'm taking Kelsey Mitchell to record over 21.5 points today. Grab the line before it shifts! From a betting perspective, she's cleared this line in five of the last seven games.

Player Prop Bet #3: Aliyah Boston

Aliyah Boston 2025 WNBA Stats

GP: 38 | PPG: 15.5 | FG: 54.6 % | FT: 77.1 % | 3PT: 22.2 % | REB: 8.2 | AST: 3.6 | STL: 1.0 | BLK: 1.0

• OVER 8.5 Rebounds (-122 FanDuel)

My third best bet for today, I placed one unit on Indiana Fever forward Aliyah Boston to record over 8.5 rebounds against the Los Angeles Sparks.

Aforementioned, tonight is a crucial night for both teams, and here's why this is a strong player prop bet for tonight.

Averaging 8.2 rebounds on the season, Boston has been monstrous on the glass for the Fever as of late.  Soaring over this prop line in three of the last five games, Boston recorded nine rebounds alone on Tuesday against the Seattle Storm.

Ranking sixth in offensive rebounds per game (2.3 ORPG), Boston faces a Sparks team that allows the eighth most offensive boards per game (8.6), along with the second-most second chance points per game (11.9).

The Fever are one of the most successful teams in the paint, and Stephanie White has emphasized the importance of rebounding.

Boston has a fairly decent matchup against the Sparks, who allow the fifth most rebounds to centers, although Cameron Brink is back in the rotation for LA. Even so, they are one of the least efficient teams on the glass, averaging just 33 rebounds per game.

Over the past month, we've seen Liberty forward Jonquel Jones (11 rebounds), and Ezi Magbegor (11 rebounds) find success on the glass even in the presence of Dearica Hamby and Azurà Stevens.

Final WNBA Player Prop Betting Prediction: Aliyah Boston OVER 8.5 Rebounds (-122 FanDuel)

I'm confident in this prop, given Boston has recorded nine, 12, and 10 rebounds in three matchups against the Sparks this season. Putting up five offensive boards alone last matchup, Boston has 11 OREB against LA this year.

Oddsmakers are expecting a close matchup, and Boston is averaging 33 minutes in all three head-to-head matchups with the Sparks. The Fever do lose rebounding without Caitlin Clark, and even Sophie Cunningham.

When logging 33 minutes Boston is averaging 9.6 rebounds this season. Plus, she's cleared this line in four straight matchups against the Sparks, dating back to 2024.

• I'm taking Aliyah Boston to record over 8.5 rebounds today.
