Connecticut Sun Player Prop Pick: Tina Charles

The Sun have endured a rough start, squeezed by injuries and a lineup in flux since trading Alyssa Thomas. Despite their struggles, they’ve remained competitive at home and recently edged a playoff-contending Atlanta team. Veteran Tina Charles offers interior stability, yet offensive lack of spacing and depth continue to hamper their ceiling.

  • Frontcourt Relief: With Connecticut lacking interior depth, Charles is seeing increased rebounding responsibility.
  • Mismatch Potential: Mystics’ non-elite rebounding gives Charles plenty of second-chance opportunities.
  • Veteran Instinct: Charles continues to hunt and secure boards even during extended minutes.
Pick
Tina Charles Over 8.5 Rebounds (-110)

Washington Mystics Player Prop Pick: Brittney Sykes

The Mystics are building momentum, boosted by rookie Kiki Iriafen’s emergence—a Rookie of the Month candidate who’s been averaging a double‑double. They’re also receiving strong contributions from Brittney Sykes (19.6 PPG, 4.5 APG) and benefit from home-court advantage. Their scoring has been up, but defensive lapses still surface.

  • Offensive Engine: Sykes is Washington’s primary scorer, averaging 19.6 PPG and hitting the free-throw line frequently.
  • Volume Play: She takes on more scoring load amid team inconsistencies on offense.
  • Home Confidence: Boosted by a ive home crowd, Sykes steps up in primetime slots.
Pick
Brittney Sykes Over 18.5 Points (-115)
