7 Unit Play. Take #625 Over in New York Liberty @ Phoenix Mercury (10p.m., Monday, August 26 NBA.tv) The Liberty have gone under the posted total 4 straight games, but I expect a course correction tonight in downtown Phoenix. Both teams have strong offensive teams, and 192 points were scored when these teams met earlier this season. New York ranks second in points per game in the WNBA and after a slower paced game last time out against Connecticut expect a much more up-tempo game tonight. Phoenix ranks ninth in points allowed giving up over 84 points per game.

2 Unit Play. Take #622 Under in Connecticut @ Atlanta (3p.m., Sunday, August League Pass) Look for a course correction from Connecticut on Sunday after scoring 109 points last time out. We expect a more traditional game for them on Sunday with lockdown defense and Atlanta struggling to score points in the second half.

7 Unit Play. Take #918 Under in New York @ Las Vegas (4p.m., Saturday, August 17 CBS) Both teams got off to a hot start on Thursday, but expect a lower scoring game in this battle of the two best teams. The last 3 games these two teams have played have gone under today’s posted number including a game this season on June 15th. They are strong on both ends of the floor and I do not expect either team to get a bunch of open looks. Both teams want this game early in the second half of the season to make claim they are the team to beat.

7 Unit Play. Take #631 Over 178.5 in Indiana @ Dallas (7:30p.m., Thursday, July 17 ESPN) Dallas has been one of the most disappointing teams in the country and their coach in clearly on the hot seat. They do play up-tempo and so does Indiana and thus we expect some points to be scored in this game. The Fever are 14-4 going over the posted total in their 18 games this season. The Wings are 9-6 (1 push) going over the last total in their 16 games this season. The over has hit the last two times these teams played.

5 Unit Play. Take #609 Over 162.5 in New York @ Chicago (1p.m., Saturday, July 13 ABC) This is a rematch from Thursday, and we expect the game to go over the posted total for a second straight game. New York is an up-tempo team that is not great on defense but has a variety of offensive weapons. Two of the last three meetings have gone over the posted total. If Chicago can make anything from the arc at a decent percentage we should be in good shape to collect with the over.

3 Unit Play. Take #616 Under in Washington @ Minnesota (7p.m., Saturday, July 6 League Pass) The Lynx are especially strong on defense during the second half and I feel Washington will struggle to get their footing in this game. Minnesota has nailed the under in 12 of their 20 games this season and this total is higher than what most of their games are.

7 Unit Play. Take #603 Over in Connecticut @ Minnesota (8p.m., Thursday, July 4 Prime Video) Just do not find many totals this low in the WNBA and these are two of the top teams in the league. They have a bunch of offensive skill players and I feel this will be a close game where some fouling occurs at the end of the game to propel the total. We will not worry about who covers the spread in this low odds game and instead just focus on the over. 165 points were scored in the first matchup this season. In fact, the over has hit in the last 3 matchups.

4 Unit Play. Take #629 Over 159 in Chicago @ Atlanta (7p.m., Tuesday, July 2 CBSSN) We used this total as a top play and it was a dud, as Chicago forgot how to score points in the second half. Expect a much better offensive performance by them on Tuesday, as the Dream are not a good team, especially on defense.

10 Unit Play. Take #621 Over in Minnesota Lynx @ Chicago Sky (3p.m., Sunday, June 29 ESPN3) The Sky have been an over team of late and we expect them to cash for us yet again on Sunday. Chicago has gone over the posted total in 6 of their last 7 games. Minnesota has been the surprise team in the league winning the commissioners cup but that seemed to take a lot out of them. They were lackluster on Thursday, losing to Dallas and giving up 94 points in the process. That was a Wings team that had lost 11 straight games prior to lighting up the scoreboard against Minnesota. The Lynx were a terrible defensive team in 2023 and they are not the same team on the road defensively. The over has easily hit in the Lynx last two road games and I see one of the teams reaching 90 points in this contest. We will not worry if the Lynx have recovered and instead just focus on the over. 

4 Unit Play. Take #615 Over in Los Angeles Sparks @ New York Liberty (7p.m., Thursday, June 20 Prime) The Sparks suffered a blow to their young rookie in Cameron Brink tearing her ACL. I always like to play the over when a team is missing a key player and expect a lot of points in this game. Look for the Liberty to control the pace of this game and they should come close to 100 points.

7 Unit Play. Take #603 Over 164.5 in Minnesota @ Las Vegas (10p.m., Tuesday, June 11 NBA TV) Always like to play overs when one team has some injuries and that will be the case tonight in Sin City. The Aces have hit adversity for the first time in years, but playing at home should help get their offense on track. This team is too talented not to score 90+ each game. Minnesota was terrible on defense last year and expect this to be a high scoring game.
