There are plenty of opportunities to get involved in the action this evening. One of the more unique features on DraftKings this year is Pick6 Fantasy Basketball!
This article will look at my top Pick6 plays for tonight’s slate. We simply choose whether a player will record more or less of the set statistic. Here are my favorite plays for tonight’s action.
Caitlin Clark More Than 8.5 Assists
Indiana has much more at stake tonight than simply extending a four-game winning streak. The fourth-place Fever sit only a half-game behind Las Vegas for the No. 3 seed, and Clark has increasingly controlled games as a distributor, averaging 8.3 APG for the season. Toronto does have an intriguing defensive option in Kiki Rice, a strong screen navigator who recently made life difficult for Paige Bueckers. Unfortunately, Rice is dealing with an ankle issue and wasn’t available when Clark carved up the Tempo for 14 assists in June.
Despite the possibly difficult matchup, it’s dangerous to play Clark too close. If Toronto commits extra attention to her in ball-screen actions and forces her to find Aliyah Boston, Makayla Timpson, or shooters behind the play, she can still rack up big assist numbers. The Tempo have allowed 22.3 assists per game, third-most in the league, and with Clark needing only nine at the discounted featured line, I’m trusting her to get this done.

Jackie Young More Than 15.5 Points
Atlanta isn’t a defense we’d typically target blindly, especially with Rhyne Howard and Allisha Gray giving the Dream multiple options against opposing guards. Howard, in particular, has put together an impressive season defending elite perimeter scorers, so Young will have to work for her offense tonight. The interesting part is that Atlanta already tried this matchup two weeks ago, and Young still picked them apart for 28 points en route to a triple double. With third-place Las Vegas trying to protect its narrow edge over Indiana and Atlanta sitting just behind both teams in fifth, this also has the feel of an early playoff matchup in which the Aces should lean heavily on their established core.

Jonquel Jones More Than 10.5 Rebounds
There should be a real battle at center in Chicago, because Kamilla Cardoso gives Jones considerably more resistance than the Sky’s overall rebounding numbers would suggest. Cardoso is averaging 8.7 RPG herself, and Jones has been held to eight and 10 boards in their two meetings this season, so this isn’t a case of picking on an overmatched individual defender.
Chicago allows 46.0 opponent rebounds per game, the most in the WNBA, meaning missed shots and loose rebounds continue to find their way to opposing teams even with Cardoso in the middle. That’s an environment Jones is equipped to exploit as New York’s leading rebounder at 9.4 RPG, particularly when Cardoso is pulled away from the rim or forced to help elsewhere and the weak-side glass opens up.
