This season, Burton is averaging 5.5 assists per game, so this line is set a little high for the Valkyries\u2019 lead guard.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Toronto is one of the worst defensive teams in the league, but it has held Burton to six and dimes in both of their head-to-head matchups. On top of that, Burton has cleared 6.5 dimes in just nine of her 29 games the 2026 season.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Since July 1 (nine games), she\u2019s averaging 5.8 assists per game, yet Burton has seven or more dimes in just two of those matchups. I think the UNDER is the smart bet with the Valkyries set as double-digit favorites.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Tempo vs. Valkyries Prediction and Pick<\/p>\n
Earlier today, I shared in my WNBA Best Bets column \u2013 Peter\u2019s Points<\/a> \u2013 why the OVER is a great bet in this rematch:\u00a0<\/p>\n The Valkyries have the best defense in the WNBA, ranking No. 1 in the league in defensive rating and No. 1 in opponent points per game (77.0).\u00a0<\/p>\n However, the Tempo are the complete opposite, ranking 15th in defensive rating and 14th in opponent points per game (93.7) after allowing 96 in Sunday\u2019s loss. These teams combined for 175 points in their last meeting, though they combined for just 158 points in their first matchup in Toronto.<\/p>\n The Tempo were playing much better basketball at the time, as they\u2019ve dropped nine of their last 10 games.\u00a0<\/p>\n The Valkyries may be able to shut down this Toronto attack, but the Tempo still scored 79 points without their best two players (Mabrey and Brittney Sykes) in action on Sunday.\u00a0<\/p>\n Plus, the OVER has hit in 19 of Toronto’s 29 games this season, including 11 of its 12 road games. I\u2019ll bet on that trend continuing on Tuesday night.\u00a0<\/p>\n Pick: OVER 168.5 (-110 at DraftKings)<\/a><\/p>\n Odds refresh periodically and are subject to change.<\/p>\n If you or someone you know has a gambling problem and wants help, call 1-800-GAMBLER.<\/p>\n Find Peter Dewey’s\u00a0WNBA betting record here<\/a>\u00a0(futures included).
