Sunday's WNBA game picks

Dream vs. Fever Over 162.5 (-110 via BetMGM) ⭐⭐⭐⭐

This number ballooned up to 165 while writing this article due to a RAS release, but it could still be worth playing based on my projections. My number is closer to 170 for this game, as the Fever have been quietly dominant on the offensive end this season.

According to HerHoopStats, Indiana ranks third in the league in offensive rating and is in the top half of the league in points per game with an average of 81.7. The Dream actually rank higher in my offensive numbers and are fourth in the league in scoring with an average of 84.0 points per contest.

FanDuel is still offering this total at 164.5, which we would recommend as a three-star play. The first-half Over of 82.5 at the same shop could also be worth a look for those not wanting to bet into an inflated total.

Sky +5.5 (-105 via BetMGM) vs. Mystics ⭐⭐⭐⭐

As I mentioned in my latest look at the WNBA championship odds and WNBA MVP odds, we will continue to fade the Mystics until the best sportsbooks adjust.

Sure, Washington (6-4) is coming off a 19-point win over the Phoenix Mercury, but Sunday's matchup will be another step up in competition. I have the Chicago Sky (5-6) power rated 0.5 points lower than the Mystics, making this spread 3 instead of 5.5.

BetMGM is offering -105 juice to take the spread with the underdog, which we will happily take for a four-star play. Kahleah Copper (personal) is available for this game, which would be a big boost, as the Sky look to end a three-game skid.

According to UnderdogNetwork, the Sky are giving up a league-high 40.2 points per game in the paint so far this season. This could be a good contest to cash Overs on Washington's posts Elena Delle Donne and Shakira Austin, but the Mystics haven't proven they are capable of doing much offensively this year. That's why we are sticking with the spread in a defensive slugfest.
