The Storm are in a rebuild around top picks Dominique Malonga and Awa Fam, but it has led to some underwhelming offensive numbers in 2026.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-3\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-primary my-f-1.5\" q:key=\"0\" q:id=\"8b\">The Storm rank 14th in offensive rating, 14th in points per game and 12th in effective field goal percentage, posting a net rating of minus-6.2 (13th in the league) in the process.<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-4\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-primary my-f-1.5\" q:key=\"0\" q:id=\"8e\">Chicago isn\u2019t much better \u2013 it is ninth in the WNBA in net rating \u2013 but oddsmakers have it favored in this matchup. The Sky are 6-9 against the Western Conference in 2026, which is impressive considering that they have just one win against the East.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-5\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-primary my-f-1.5\" q:key=\"0\" q:id=\"8h\">Let\u2019s take a look at the latest odds, a player prop to bet and my prediction for this matinee matchup in the W.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Storm vs. Sky Odds, Spread and Total<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-7\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-primary my-f-1.5\" q:key=\"0\" q:id=\"8n\"><a href=\"http:\/\/bit.ly\/4kJjtBu\" rel=\"nofollow sponsored noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Odds via DraftKings Sportsbook<\/a><\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-8\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-primary my-f-1.5\" q:key=\"0\" q:id=\"8q\">Spread<\/p>\n<p>Storm +3.5 (-110)Sky -3.5 (-110)<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-10\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-primary my-f-1.5\" q:key=\"0\" q:id=\"8w\">Moneyline<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-12\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-primary my-f-1.5\" q:key=\"0\" q:id=\"92\">Total<\/p>\n<p>171.5 (Over -105\/Under -115)Storm vs. Sky How to WatchDate: Wednesday, July 15Time: 12:00 p.m. ESTVenue: Wintrust ArenaHow to Watch (TV): CW Seattle, CW26, WNBA League PassStorm record: 6-19Sky record: 7-16Storm vs. Sky Injury ReportsStorm Injury ReportEzi Magbegor &#8212; outTaina Mair &#8212; outSky Injury ReportRickea Jackson &#8212; outSkylar Diggins &#8212; outDiJonai Carrington &#8212; outKamilla Cardoso &#8212; questionableStorm vs. Sky Best WNBA Prop BetsStorm Best WNBA Prop BetDominique Malonga OVER 8.5 Rebounds (-129)<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-24\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-primary my-f-1.5\" q:key=\"0\" q:id=\"a2\">In today\u2019s edition of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.si.com\/betting\/wnba-best-bets-today-predictions-prop-bets-for-olivia-miles-dominique-malonga-valkyries-fever\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Peter\u2019s Points \u2013 my daily WNBA Best Bets column<\/a> \u2013 I broke down why Malonga should have a big game on the glass against Chicago:\u00a0<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-25\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-primary my-f-1.5\" q:key=\"0\" q:id=\"a5\">Storm star center Dominique Malonga is averaging 7.9 rebounds per game in the 2026 season, but she missed time with a concussion that led to a few games with limited minutes.<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-26\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-primary my-f-1.5\" q:key=\"0\" q:id=\"a8\">Over her last 10 games, Malonga has nine or more rebounds six times, including in each of her last three appearances.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-27\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-primary my-f-1.5\" q:key=\"0\" q:id=\"ab\">She should be able to control the glass against the Sky, who rank 11th in the WNBA in rebound percentage and dead last in the league in opponent rebounds per game in 2026.
