Saturday’s four-game WNBA DFS slate is split in half, with Atlanta hosting Connecticut and Las Vegas traveling to Minnesota in the early slate, and Los Angeles vs. Dallas and Chicago at Seattle in the late slate. In fact, FanDuel’s main slate only features the two late games, though they are offering an all-day slate as well. If you choose to play the full slate, do not forget to check the lineups before the late games start. I tried to make sure my Playbook includes players from both the early and the late games but if you find that your lineups skew heavily towards the late games, for instance, perhaps consider just playing that slate instead.
| WNBA DFS Guards | ||||||
| Player | Team | Opp. | DK $ | DK FPPG | FD $ | FD FPPG |
| Kahleah Copper | CHI | SEA | 9000 | 27.3 | 6000 | 25.89 |
| Marina Mabrey's price has finally fallen below Copper's, but I don't think we're getting enough of a discount considering how poorly she has played her last four games. Copper has at least 27.5 fantasy points in four straight games and only two teams have allowed more fantasy points to guards than Seattle this season. Copper is one of the cheapest guards who I actually trust, and that's even before we consider the matchup. | ||||||
| Jordin Canada | LA | DAL | 8400 | 27.9 | 6400 | 27.84 |
| Canada is the other mid-priced guard I trust for Saturday's slate. She has averaged 28.5 fantasy points in three games against Dallas, with at least 25 fantasy points in 12 of her last 14 games. | ||||||
| Diamond Miller | MIN | LV | 7800 | 23.43 | 5800 | 23.81 |
| I want so badly to believe in Diamond Miller, but she has just been too inconsistent this season. She is coming off 37.75 fantasy points in 35 minutes Thursday after failing to top 25 fantasy points or 24 minutes in four straight games. It was encouraging to see Miller take some minutes from Tiffany Mitchell, and it doesn't hurt that Miller has averaged 22.9 fantasy points and 22.3 minutes in two games against Las Vegas this season. If you need to save some money or chase some upside, Miller is a worthy risk. | ||||||
| Kelsey Plum | LV | MIN | 10300 | 30.69 | 6900 | 29.42 |
| Plum is averaging 40.1 fantasy points in the four games Candace Parker has missed. Her price still hasn't caught up on FanDuel, but I like her on DraftKings as well. Minnesota has allowed the most fantasy points to guards this season and Plum had 50.5 fantasy points against them just two weeks ago. | ||||||
| Lexie Brown | LA | DAL | 6800 | 23.12 | 5300 | 22.47 |
| You can pivot to Layshia Clarendon if you need to, especially if Karlie Samuelson is out, but I just trust Brown a little bit more. Brown played 20 minutes Thursday in her first game in over a month, but she could return to playing 30+ minutes per game as soon as Saturday. I trust Brown more than any of the other guards in her price range. | ||||||
| Player | Team | Opp. | DK $ | DK FPPG | FD $ | FD FPPG |
| DeWanna Bonner | CON | ATL | 10100 | 31.25 | 7300 | 30.84 |
| Bonner has played at least 36 minutes in four straight games, averaging 40.8 fantasy points in that span. I trust Kelsey Plum more but I wouldn't mind fitting them both in a lineup, especially on DraftKings. | ||||||
| WNBA DFS Forwards | ||||||
| Player | Team | Opp. | DK $ | DK FPPG | FD $ | FD FPPG |
| Alysha Clark | LV | MIN | 6300 | 13.59 | 4900 | 13.21 |
| Clark is still pretty cheap for someone with at least 20 fantasy points in three of her four games with Candace Parker out. She may not have the upside of someone like Dearica Hamby or Rebecca Allen but she is safer and cheaper than those players. | ||||||
| Dulcy Fankam Mendjiadeu | SEA | CHI | 7300 | 10.9 | 4400 | 10.81 |
| Fankam Mendjiadeu had been great in three games as a starter before struggling against Las Vegas on Thursday, scoring just five fantasy points in 16 minutes. It is possible she has turned into a pumpkin after a nice run, but Las Vegas has the best defensive rating in the league, and there is no shame in struggling against them. Fankam Mendjiadeu is averaging 21.3 fantasy points in 26.5 minutes per game in four starts and if she can just match that production, she is too cheap on FanDuel. | ||||||
| Ezi Magbegor | SEA | CHI | 8900 | 32.94 | 8200 | 33.71 |
| This is as cheap as Magbegor has been in nearly two months, and Chicago has allowed the most fantasy points to opposing forwards. Each of Seattle's last six games has been against a team ranking in the top seven in defensive rating. She is a good bet to bounce back, especially on DraftKings. | ||||||
| Dearica Hamby | LA | DAL | 6900 | 20.82 | 5400 | 20.47 |
| Hamby is a bit riskier than Alysha Clark, but it helps that Hamby is averaging 27.7 fantasy points and 29.1 minutes in three games against Dallas. If you throw out the game where Hamby injured her ankle after five minutes, she has played at least 25 minutes in five straight games. Hamby should be safe off the bench but I'll like her even more if she returns to the starting lineup. | ||||||
| Alyssa Thomas | CON | ATL | 11500 | 43.42 | 8900 | 42.58 |
| A'ja Wilson and Napheesa Collier have struggled head-to-head, while Thomas faces the team that has allowed the most fantasy points to forwards this season. Thomas has averaged 46.5 fantasy points in three games against Atlanta and I'll gladly pay up for that production. | ||||||
| Player | Team | Opp. | DK $ | DK FPPG | FD $ | FD FPPG |
| Nneka Ogwumike | LA | DAL | 10600 | 40.49 | 8500 | 40.09 |
| Ogwumike is a natural pivot if you can't afford Alyssa Thomas. Ogwumike has averaged 44.6 fantasy points in three games against Dallas, and she has at least 37.75 fantasy points in five straight games. | ||||||
| Elizabeth Williams | CHI | SEA | 9200 | 24.9 | 7200 | 26.79 |
| I keep waiting for Williams to come back down to earth, but it hasn't happened yet. She has at least 30 fantasy points in five of her last six games, and Seattle is 11th in fantasy points allowed to forwards. | ||||||
