Las Vegas vs. Washington – WNBA Game Preview, Prediction and Player Props
Spread: Washington -2.5 | Total: 158.5
Las Vegas Aces Outlook
The Aces might be without their franchise centerpiece A’ja Wilson, who’s listed as questionable after injuring her wrist in Tuesday’s 87-78 loss to New York. Wilson landed awkwardly on a layup attempt in the second quarter and did not return. Head coach Becky Hammon made it clear that long-term health comes first, so there’s a real chance Wilson sits this one out.
With or without Wilson, the Aces need to cut down on the turnovers. Jackie Young (19 pts, 7 reb) and Chelsea Gray (11 pts, 7 reb) both filled the stat sheet but also combined for 10 turnovers against the Liberty. Las Vegas has dropped three of its last five and is treading water at 9-10 overall.
Las Vegas Player Prop Pick
Jackie Young Over 4.5 Assists – With Wilson possibly sidelined, expect Young to handle more playmaking duties. She’s already averaging strong assist numbers, and her usage should spike.
Washington Mystics Outlook
Don’t look now, but the Mystics are heating up. They’ve won four of their last six and just edged the Sky 81-79 in dramatic fashion. Shakira Austin played hero, nailing two clutch free throws with under 3 seconds to go after putting up a solid 15 points in 24 minutes.
The real buzz around D.C. is about their two standout rookies. Kiki Iriafen and Sonia Citron have both earned All-Star nods, the first rookie pair to do so since 1999. Iriafen posted a double-double (11 pts, 10 reb) while Citron added 13 points and 8 rebounds in Tuesday’s win. These young guns are confident, aggressive, and giving this squad a serious spark.
Washington Player Prop Pick
Kiki Iriafen Over 7.5 Rebounds – She’s snagged 10+ boards in last games and should have plenty of opportunities against a banged-up Aces frontcourt.
Prediction & Betting Outlook
Washington enters as a slim 2.5-point favorite, and they’re the hotter team with momentum and a healthier roster. If Wilson is out, Las Vegas loses its anchor on both ends of the floor. With the Mystics surging and the Aces slipping, take Washington to cover and edge out a win in a close one.
Best Bet: Washington -2.5
Toral: Under 158.5
Final Score Prediction: Washington 81, Las Vegas 75
