What a difference two days make. We have another three-game slate Sunday, but it looks a lot different than Friday's three-game slate. There are three top forwards going Sunday, and they all have warts. Elena Delle Donne may not play much more than 2.5 quarters at home against a depleted Atlanta team. Sylvia Fowles and Liz Cambage have to face each other. The top play of the day might be Diamond DeShields. That might be the first time all season the top play of the day has been a guard and not a forward.
Player | FanDuel | DraftKings | Comments |
Diamond DeShields, G, CHI | $7,600 | $10,200 | Diamond has scored at least 33.8 fantasy points in four straight games. You could argue she is a better play at home against Indiana than any of the top forwards. |
Napheesa Collier, F, MIN | $6,700 | $9,700 | I love her price on FanDuel, but I will consider her on DraftKings as well. With Damiris Dantas back, Collier can spend more time at the three, beating up on the Aces' undersized wings. I love her floor and her ceiling in this game. |
Erica Wheeler, G, IND | $6,600 | $8,600 | I'm not sure Wheeler will ever be a cash play, but she is averaging 35.9 fantasy points against Chicago and she is coming off an 18 point, seven rebound and five assist game Friday. Her ceiling is as high as any guard's in this slate. |
Brittney Sykes, G, ATL | $6,100 | $8,500 | Sykes had 38.75 fantasy points in 36 minutes Friday at Connecticut and if Tiffany Hayes is still out, she has a strong chance at a repeat performance. |
Natalie Achonwa, F, IND | $5,900 | $6,700 | Achonwa is coming off a double-double Friday, and she is averaging 26.1 fantasy points against the Sky. |
Danielle Robinson, G, MIN | $5,800 | $9,300 | I do not know why Robinson is so cheap on FanDuel. She has scored at least 23.75 fantasy points in seven consecutive games, and she is averaging 32.0 fantasy points in her last four. |
Dearica Hamby, F, LAV | $5,200 | $6,300 | If A'ja Wilson's high ankle sprain keeps her out, Hamby needs to be in every cash lineup. Hamby is sixth in the WNBA in fantasy points per minute, and she could see 30+ minutes if Wilson is out. |
Stefanie Dolson, F, CHI | $5,000 | $7,500 | Dolson has made a career against below-average frontcourts, and Indiana's certainly qualifies. Dolson is averaging 27.8 fantasy points against the Fever. |
Nia Coffey, F, ATL | $4,500 | $5,000 | Coffey had 21.75 fantasy points in 21 minutes Friday, and she has a decent shot at similar numbers if Tiffany Hayes is out again. I'll feel more confident playing Coffey in cash if she gets the start. I love Coffey's price on DraftKings. |
Tamera Young, G, LAV | $4,100 | $5,100 | Young had six points and five rebounds in 19 minutes Friday. Between A'ja Wilson's injury and the matchup with Napheesa Collier, Young could easily top 20 minutes Sunday. |
Shenise Johnson, G, IND | $3,800 | $4,400 | Johnson has played at least 12 minutes in three straight games, though she has probably earned more playing time of late. She has at least 22.9 fantasy points in two of those three games, and I like those odds for GPP lineups, especially considering her price. |
Sylvia Fowles, F, MIN | $8,000 | $11,400 | No team has allowed more fantasy points to opposing forwards than the Aces, though Fowles managed just 26.3 fantasy points in her first matchup with them. If you're looking to play one of the top forwards, I think she is your best bet. |
