🏆 Who will win Dream vs. Fever?
I don't think the Dream should be favored in this spot, despite having the shorter WNBA championship odds.
The Fever have turned their season around after losing to the Fire in Portland on May 30. They've won five of their last six games and, in my opinion, should be favored to win at home against any team not named the Lynx, Aces, or Liberty. Give me the Fever to win by one point. While there's value in playing the moneyline at +102 (via BetRivers), I'll take the points instead, as the spread is slightly more likely to hit.
Score prediction: Fever 89, Dream 88
💰 Dream vs. Fever prediction & best bet
Fever +1.5 (-118)
If this game had taken place in early June, I could get behind Dream -1.5, but not now. Indiana has won four straight, and while it hasn't faced elite competition during that stretch, it did beat Atlanta by 12 on June 4. Caitlin Clark has also come alive, scoring 21+ points in three consecutive games after being held to 19 or fewer in five straight from May 28 to June 8.
Atlanta, meanwhile, has not been living the dream. It has gone 1-2 ATS over its last three games, including a straight-up loss to the Liberty as a 3.5-point favorite.
🔥 Best Dream vs. Fever player prop bet
Angel Reese Over 12.5 rebounds (+104)
Reese has been a monster on the glass, and there's no reason to fade her anymore. She's grabbed 13 or more boards in four of her last six games, including three 17-rebound performances. In a standalone game on Prime Video, we'll likely see maximum effort from Reese against Clark.
Scoring isn't really her forte, as she's averaging just 14.6 points per game, but we know she's a historic rebounder. Look for her to put up monster numbers in that category tonight, as she can't compete with Clark when it comes to putting the ball in the basket.
🚀 Dream vs. Fever same-game parlay
Almost 49% of Reese's boards this season have been on the offensive glass, so parlaying her Over on rebounds with the Fever's spread isn't as negatively correlated as Caesars thinks it is.
Parlaying these two picks at Caesars is +320 - the best line available among the top sports betting sites - while FanDuel, which is known as the best rec book at pricing SGPs, is offering just +267.
