If you're looking to bet on WNBA player props, welcome! On the last day of the regular season, player props can always be tricky.
However, there are plenty of value picks and bets, given there's a hefty amount of matchups today. With six games on the slate, I've gathered the updated odds and best player prop bets for Thursday, September 19.
Although some teams have already ruled on their starters, I've gathered bets on the active players for tonight's games.
With the 8th seed up for grabs, the Atlanta Dream, Washington Mystics, and Chicago Sky will battle for the last playoff spot. With that said, the Sky will visit the Connecticut Sun, while the Atlanta Dream will matchup with the Liberty on the road.
The matchup of the day, the Washington Mystics will host the Indiana Fever on the road. Slated to air on prime television, the Mystics are the current moneyline and spread favorites. Avoiding this matchup at all costs, the Aces will host the Wings at home.
As of this morning, the Aces bench players will get the start. Lastly, the Sparks get the Lynx, and the Mercury get the Storm.
It's important to note, some sportsbooks have limited player props for tonight. However, I've gathered the best bets to keep us in the green.

PPG: 15 | FG: 45.5 % | FT: 78.5 % | 3PT %: 26.2 | REB: 9.6 | AST: 2.3 | STL: 0.9| BLK: 0.5
Tonight, I'm loving Atlanta Dream center Tina Charles to produce a double-double against the New York Liberty. Although this player prop is very juiced at -190 odds, there's still value there. While I expect the odds to go up, I grabbed the line early this morning.
Plagued with injuries all season, Charles has carried the Dream on her back, literally.
Averaging 15 points and 9.6 rebounds on the season, the 35 year old is reverse aging. Returning to the WNBA after missing the entire 2023 season, Charles is a huge x-factor in Atlanta's playoff push. Once in the bottom half of the standings, this is a must win for Atlanta tonight.
It's hard to say if the Liberty will start their usual five, although I do expect a competitive game.
Now Charles get's a chance to carry the Dream into the playoffs against her former team.
Reaching a double-double in all September games but one, Charles recently tied WNBA legend Sylvia Fowles for the most double-doubles in WNBA history.
193 throughout her illustrious career, Charles has the chance to make history tonight. With -190 odds, Ill take that any day. Previously seen the double-double oddds line at -165, I expect this to increase throughout the day.
Totaling over 4,000 rebounds, Charles has reached double-digit rebounds in eight of the last ten games. Though inconsistent on the boards through May and June, Charles has stepped up in the absence of Cheyenne Parker-Tyus, who was ruled out for the remainder of the season with an ankle injury.
Watching nearly every Dream game, off the top of my head, I can't remember a night Charles dipped below 10 points in a game.
Tonight, Charles gets a tough matchup with the Liberty, where she's achieved a double-double in just 1-3 matchups.
Putting up 16 points and 12 rebounds (all on the defensive end), it's important to note these two teams haven't matched up since June. Mentioned previously, Charles turned on the jets since then.
However, Jones hasn't played over 30 minutes since September 5, which may be a great sign for Charles. On the other hand, Stewart's averages lofty minutes, unless if the Liberty are blowing teams away.
Overall, the Liberty are a complete menace on the boards. Second in the WNBA in rebounds (36.8), they are a team that destroys opponents in the boards. Second behind the Connecticut Sun, they limit the opposing teams to 32.6 rebounds per game.
In the scheme of things, that's not a ton of boards. The third highest rebounding team in the league (36.1), Charles makes up 26.6 percent of those.
If you're betting on the WNBA, this is a must win game for Atlanta. While we don't know what lineup the Liberty will throw at the Dream, expect Tina Charles to throw down another double-double, and continue to carry this team into a possible playoff spot.
However, over the last games, the Dream center is putting up 17 points, on 16.2 field goal attempts, along with 11.9 boards. The shot volume, the minutes, and the defensive positioning is all there. While I expect Stewart and Jones to get a breather this game, Charles will continue to show why she's the 4th leading rebounder in the WNBA.
PPG: 19.5 | FG: 41.7 % | FT: 90.4 % | 3PT %: 34.1 | REB: 5.7 | AST: 8.4 | STL:1.3 | BLK: 0.7
In the last game of her historic rookie season, I'm betting on Fever sensation Caitlin Clark to score 25+ points for +102 odds against the Mystics. For plus money, I love the value of this prop, especially given her stats and trajectory.
Recently breaking the rookie single season scoring record, the former Hawkeye gets the Mystics, whom she's scored 25+ points twice this year. With 30 points in her debut against Washington, Clark tallied 29 in their July 10 matchup. For +102 odds, how can I ignore a player prop that has a 67 percent hit rate against the opponent this year?
We all know what Clark is capable of, and yes it goes well beyond he scoring capabilities. Only scoring 25+ in nine games on the season, I can't think of a better opponent she can cook up against.
Mentioned previously, the Mystics will get some defensive energy back, especially with Ariel Atkins and Brittney Sykes fully healthy. However, the Mystics have allowed the 6th most points per game (82.1), including the fourth worst field goal percentage (44.1 %), and 10th most free-throw attempts (20.2).
Luckily for Clark, she went 10-11 from the charity stripe last outing against Washington, including 7-14, and 5-9 from deep.
Although they've improved on defense as a unit, Clark is putting up 25.7 points, on 13.7 field goal attempts in three against the Mystics.
Overall, it's hard to pinpoint how much Christie Sides will play Caitlin Clark tonight. Clinching a playoff spot for the first time since 2016. Locked in as the 6th seed, Clark has been a very different player post all-star break.
This might be a stretch, but if Clark plays hefty minutes, I love the 25+ point player prop.
No ones been hotter than the Fever, putting up the most offense (90.9) points since the Olympic break. In that period, Indiana continues to lead the league in three-point percentage (39.4 %) and field goals made (33) since then.
While the month long break was much needed, Clark ranks third in the WNBA in PPG (24.3), and trey attempts (13.6). With this trajectory, I like this WNBA player prop for today.
PPG: 14 | FG: 54.1 % | FT: 73.1 % | 3PT %: 14.3 | REB: 5.6 | AST: 1.5 | STL: 1.2 | BLK: 0.6
My favorite WNBA player prop of today, I'm betting on Connecticut Sun big Brionna Jones to score over 13.5 points against the Chicago Sky.
While I expected this line to increase to 14.5, I was glad to grab this early Thursday morning.
Prior to last night, the Sun forward tallied over 13.5 points in seven straight matchups, including a season-high 26 points against the Seattle Storm.
With the playoff seeding up in the air, this game very much matters for the Connecticut Sun. Fairly consistent in August post all-star break, Jones has returned to her all-star form. A big body in the paint, Jones is excellent in reading pick and roll coverage, and reading what the defense gives her.
Now she gets a depleted Chicago Sky team, who will be without Angel Reese and Kamilla Cardoso.
Set to face Isabelle Harrison and Brianna Turner, Jones has the size advantage and strength in the paint. Putting up 16 and 18 points in May and June's matchup against Chicago, I expect her to ball out tonight.
Overall, I do believe this line is set a little low, especially since her previous point prop lines closed at 14.5 and 15.5 points Soaring over her point prop total in eight straight games, no one's been hotter than Jones.
Given this prop line is lower than her season points average, I love it even more, especially against a Sky team who allows over 82 points per game. Amidst a four game losing streak, Chicago's allowed several bigs to power through them.
That includes,
If you're betting on the WNBA, it's safe to safe the Sky are trending in the wrong direction. Struggling to contain bigs in the absence of Reese and Cardoso, expect Jones to be heavily productive tonight.
