We have two great games in Friday's slate, and the Liberty host the Dream too. Connecticut hosts Las Vegas with a double-bye possibly on the line. Meanwhile, the Sky will try to get their first win ever against Elena Delle Donne. Even though I teased that New York/Atlanta game, it is a good source of value, especially for Atlanta. Outside of that game, value plays will be hard to come by, which is a shame with so many strong spend-ups.

Liz Cambage, F, LV | $8,400 | $11,100 | Cambage is averaging 34.9 fantasy points on 20.1 minutes per game against Connecticut. She is averaging 31.0 minutes over her last six games. |

Tina Charles, F, NY | $8,100 | $10,400 | Atlanta ranks 12th in fantasy points allowed to forwards. Tina Charles has at least 36 fantasy points in seven of her last nine games. |
Courtney Vandersloot, G, CHI | $7,900 | $10,200 | She has at least 30 fantasy points in nine straight games, including two against Atlanta. |
Diamond DeShields, G, CHI | $7,100 | $9,400 | She has topped 33 fantasy points in each of her last two games, and her price has gone down both times. Diamond is averaging 31.8 fantasy points against Washington this season. |
Courtney Williams, G, CON | $7,100 | $8,600 | Williams is averaging 36.8 fantasy points in two games against Las Vegas. She has at least 29 fantasy points in four straight games and six of her last seven. |
Emma Meesseman, F, WAS | $6,700 | $7,900 | Meesseman is averaging 27.8 fppg over her last six games. The Sky rank 11th in fantasy points allowed to forwards. |
Ariel Atkins, G, WAS | $5,900 | $7,700 | Chicago is 11th in fantasy points allowed to guards. Atkins has at least 10 field goal attempts and 29.25 fantasy points in each of her last two games. |
Astou Ndour, F, CHI | $5,700 | $6,400 | Ndour is coming off her best game of the season, with 38.5 fantasy points at Atlanta. She is averaging 28.75 minutes and 26.5 minutes over her last four games. |
Natasha Cloud, G, WAS | $5,400 | $7,200 | Cloud is averaging 33 minutes and 26.1 fantasy points over her last two games, and she has an excellent shot at similar numbers with Kristi Toliver out again. |
Kia Nurse, G, NY | $5,300 | $7,800 | With Asia Durr out again, Nurse is a safe play and a nice value on FD. Nurse has played at least 33 minutes in four straight games, averaging 24.3 fantasy points in that span. |
Marie Gulich, F, ATL | $5,200 | $5,300 | Gulich had 39.5 fantasy points in 28 minutes on August 13, but she has 18.75 fantasy points in 27 minutes total in two games since then. She will probably start again with Elizabeth Williams out, and while Alaina Coates is probably the better value, Gulich has a much higher ceiling. |
Shekinna Stricklen, G, CON | $4,000 | $5,500 | Stricklen is averaging 31 minutes and 23.2 fantasy points over her last two games. |
Alaina Coates, F, ATL | $3,200 | $3,600 | With the Dream eliminated from the playoff race, they have every reason to play Alaina Coates and see what they have in the former number two overall pick. Coates had 19.75 fantasy points in 21 minutes Tuesday, and she is a strong play with Elizabeth Williams out again. |
Alex Bentley, G, ATL | $5,800 | $6,100 | Bentley has at least 20 fantasy points in four of her last five games. The Liberty are 12th in fantasy points allowed to guards. |
