🏀 Valkyries vs. Aces Prediction: WNBA Picks for Saturday, June 6
The Las Vegas Aces (6-3) and Golden State Valkyries (6-4) will meet for a second time in a week when they face off at 3 p.m. ET on Saturday at the Michelob ULTRA Arena in Las Vegas on ABC.
After winning by 10 on the road, Las Vegas is a 3.5-point favorite while playing at home in this matchup between WNBA championship odds contenders. My Valkyries vs. Aces prediction wouldn't be surprised by a similar result as last time, so I'll lay the points with Las Vegas.

Score prediction: Aces 89, Valkyries 84
💰 Valkyries vs. Aces prediction & best bet
Aces -2.5 (-115)
It's surprising to see a -2.5 available at all for Saturday's game. Six days ago, Las Vegas won by 10 points as a 1.5-point road favorite. It seems like there should have been a bigger adjustment with the Aces now playing at home.
Las Vegas hasn't been able to play at home much this season, playing the fewest home games (two) thus far. And yet, the Aces have the third-best record in the league with a +4.6 net rating.
I'll take a short spread on the defending champions.
🔥 Best Valkyries vs. Aces player prop bet
Jackie Young Over 6.5 assists (+115)
Las Vegas guard Jackie Young has started to look more like herself of late. She's recorded seven-plus assists in four of her previous five outings, averaging 6.8 dimes in the process.
During that stretch, Young dished nine assists against Golden State last weekend. That makes her double-double odds (+500 at FanDuel) worth a look, especially since the Valkyries rank ninth in assists allowed.
But I'll settle for a plus-money value on seven dimes, especially the +115 price at bet365.
🚀 Valkyries vs. Aces same-game parlay
I'll keep my Valkyries vs. Aces parlay simple. I like Las Vegas to dictate things on Saturday, which is why I'm willing to lay the points in a high-scoring affair. With Young more involved, the Aces look more like the defending champions. Give me this +470 ticket.
