Looking for the best WNBA player props<\/a> today? For Tuesday, August 18, my favorite DraftKings Sportsbook picks are Caitlin Clark O 34.5 Points + Assists (-112), Marina Mabrey U 2.5 Made Three-Pointers (+114) and Angel Reese U 15.5 Points (-125).<\/p>\n

Below, I break down why each prop stands out based on projected role, matchup and recent performance.<\/p>\n

Best WNBA Player Props Today<\/p>\n

Top WNBA Prop Bets on DraftKings Sportsbook<\/p>\n

Caitlin Clark O 34.5 Points + Assists (-112)<\/a><\/p>\n

Clark has been brilliant recently and she shouldn\u2019t slow down vs. the Tempo. In her last four, Clark is averaging 25.8 points and 10 assists in 36.3 minutes per game while shooting 50% from the field and leading the Fever with a 29% usage rate.<\/p>\n

Clark has finished with at least 35 PA in all but one of these past four games and this Toronto defense she is facing tonight ranks dead last in defensive rating and it is allowing the second-most made three-pointers per game this season (9.5). Indiana boasts a massive implied team total of 100.5 points on DraftKings Sportsbook<\/a> and Clark should go nuts in this beautiful spot.<\/p>\n

Marina Mabrey U 2.5 Made Three-Pointers (+114)<\/a><\/p>\n

Opposite of Clark, Mabrey is a great bet for under 2.5 made three-pointers at this +114 price. The guard is shooting 39% from deep this season, but Mabrey has fallen short of 2.5 made treys in four of her last 10 and in her one start vs. the Fever this season, Mabrey went 2-of-5 on three-pointers.<\/p>\n

Indiana is one of the best defenses in the league at defending the three-point line and Mabrey staying under 2.5 made three-pointers in this spot is a strong possibility. The Fever are giving up the second-fewest made three-pointers per game (7.7) on the fifth-lowest percentage this season (33.5%). <\/p>\n

Angel Reese U 15.5 Points (-<\/a>1<\/a>25)<\/a><\/p>\n

Reese is going against the Aces tonight. This will be her third time facing the defending champions and Reese scored nine and 23 points in those first two matchups. However, these two meetings came at home in Atlanta, whereas tonight\u2019s matchup will be on the road in Las Vegas, which isn\u2019t encouraging for Reese.<\/p>\n

The LSU product\u2019s home\/away splits have been dramatic this season. Reese is scoring 16.7 PPG on 44% shooting at home, but 14.4 PPG on 39% shooting on the road. She has fallen short of 15.5 points in 10-of-16 road starts and A\u2019ja Wilson and company should limit Reese to under 15.5 points again tonight. <\/p>\n
