We have another big WNBA DFS slate Sunday, with four of the ten teams from Friday’s slate back in action. It looks like Elena Delle Donne will return from her back injury but with the quick turnaround, I wouldn’t be surprised if a few starters get the day off. We have four games at four different times Sunday so we will have to be vigilant checking lineups throughout the day. I would try to include at least a couple of players from the late games in your lineups so that you have flexibility to pivot based on any news we get throughout the day.

Moriah Jefferson

###
22.52
Jefferson has seen her minutes and role decrease of late but she played 30 minutes Friday and she will likely play at that many Sunday if Kayla McBride is out. Her floor has been consistently high but the has a chance to provide nice value Sunday.
Ariel Atkins

PHO
8400
26.8
###
26.60
Atkins has taken 12 shots in three consecutive games, and that streak should continue even if Elena Delle Donne returns. Phoenix is 11th in fantasy points allowed to guards and I expect Atkins and teammate Natasha Cloud to take advantage.
Diana Taurasi
PHO
WAS
9200
27.69
###
25.85
I don't really trust any of the top guards on Sunday's slate, so I will go with the one who has averaged 40.2 fantasy points in her last three games. It certainly looks like Taurasi is back to her old self, but her price hasn't quite caught up to her recent production.
Victoria Vivians
IND
MIN
7700
22.03
###
21.32
Vivans played 27 minutes and took 12 shots and even though she only made three of them, she finished with 24.75 fantasy points. Her minutes and shots should be safe if Emily Engstler is out, and she could be a really nice value if she is able to knock down a few more shots.
Veronica Burton

SEA

Burton played 21 minutes Friday with Marina Mabrey out and she looks like a nice punt play on both sites if Mabrey is out again.

Allemand played just seven minutes in her debut Friday, and she obviously needs to play more than that Sunday if she is going to provide any fantasy value. That being said, she is too good to lose playing time to Dana Evans and Rebekah Gardner for long, and if she can play just 15 minutes, she would be the best bargain guard on the slate.

Aerial Powers

###
24.41
Powers has been inconsistent at best, but with Sylvia Fowles out and Kayla McBride questionable, Powers has a good chance to lead the Lynx in shots, especially if she makes a few.
Damiris Dantas
MIN
IND
3900
10.25
###
8.20
Dantas's shot wasn't falling in her season-debut but I will anyone who gets 20+ minutes and 10+ shots at her price. It certainly helps that Indiana has allowed the most fantays points to forwards this season.
Breanna Stewart
SEA
DAL
####
41.75
###
42.88
Stewart has played Dallas twice this month and topped 53 fantasy points in both games. I was concerned Stewart's usage would go down now that Seattle is completely healthy but those concerns appear to be unfounded.
Emma Meesseman
CHI
NY
9300
28.4
###
29.98
It took Meesseman a little while to find her footing with her new team, but she now has scored at least 34 fantasy points in three of her last four games. No team has allowed more rebounds to opponents than the Liberty this season.
Ezi Magbegor
SEA
DAL
9500
31
###
34.04
Magbegor was disappointing against a Dallas team that has allowed the third-most fantasy points to forwards this season, but I like her chances to bounce back after her streak of 33+ fantasy point games was broken. She still looks like the best value among the stud forwards on DraftKings.

Awak Kuier

7.2
###
7.98
Kuier came out of nowhere to played 24 minutes Friday after she has played 20 minutes total in her previous four games. She played all of her minutes with Isabelle Harrison and they were +5 in a game Dallas lost by one. I don't entirely trust her to play 20+ minutes or score 15+ fantasy points but it is certainly worth chasing that upside at her price.
Emma Cannon
IND
MIN
3700

###
5.93
Cannon had nine fantasy points in 13 minutes Friday and she has a chance to surpass both of those totals if Emily Engstler's rib injury keeps her out.
Isabelle Harrison
DAL
SEA
7700
23.25
###
23.62
Harrison has played 25 minutes and scored at least 35 fantasy points in two of her last four games. I don't necessarily expect a repeat, but she is worth a shot in tournaments at the very least.
