WNBA - DFS Guards

Jordin Canada (Seattle Storm) – @ Chicago Sky (DK: $8,200, FD: $7,600)

The Storm are the top stack team on Sunday, as they're facing a Sky defense which allows 90.3 points per game (PPG), worst in the WNBA. Canada has fired out of the chute with 12.6 PPG, 6.0 assists per game (APG), 3.4 steals per game (SPG) and even 2.0 rebounds per game (RPG). She has managed to hit double-digit point totals in four of her five outings, while also managing to dish out at least six dimes in four of the five contests. She is getting plenty of minutes with G Sue Bird (knee) out indefinitely, and her price tag has yet to exceed her production. Canada managed 11 points in the first meetings on June 1 in the Windy City. While she struggled with her shot, hitting just 4-of-13, she more than made up for it with seven steals and six assists.

Kayla McBride (Las Vegas Aces) @ New York Liberty (DK: $9,200, FD: $6,100)

It's a good idea to pick on the teams with poor defense, and the Liberty certainly check off that box. They're allowing 86.3 PPG in their entertaining and run-and-gun style. McBride has been a source of consistency for the Aces, and for DFS players, posting at least 13 points in each of her four outings while averaging 15.3 PPG, 4.8 RPG, 1.8 APG and 1.3 SPG. She has also missed more shots than she has made in just one of her four contests, and she has at least one triple in each outing to date.

Brittney Sykes (Atlanta Dream) - vs. Connecticut Sun (DK: $7,200, FD: $6,600)

Sykes is a nice value, particularly in DraftKings, as she has opened with double-digit point totals in three of her four outings. She had her best fantasy production last time out against Las Vegas, posting 15 points, four rebounds and four assists with a blocked shot and just one turnover. Across 105 minutes so far she has managed just four turnovers, so that's a nice little bonus. Someone needs to step up on the offensive end with F Angel McCoughtry (knee) on the mend, and Sykes has been one to step up her game.

 

WNBA - DFS Forwards

Alysha Clark (Seattle Storm) – @ Chicago Sky (DK: $5,500, FD: $6,100)

Clark didn't play in Chicago last time, as she was rested in the second end of a back-to-back. That won't be an issue this time around, as the Storm haven't played since Tuesday. Look for Clark to shine against the defensively-challenged Sky, and for her to exceed her DFS salary by a mile. She is a fabulous value, particularly on DraftKings with an ultra-low salary and a ton of upside.

Dearica Hamby (Las Vegas Aces) - @ New York Liberty (DK: $7,900, FD: $6,400)

Hamby has been a consistent scorer for the Aces through four games, although her minutes certainly hinge on the status of Liz Cambage, as well as the flow of the game. She logged plenty of extra playing time with more production in a blowout in Atlanta on Thursday. She is posting a tremendous 11.8 PPG and 8.3 RPG through her four outings, and she is shooting 15-for-24 (62.5 percent) over the past three contests, and she has registered at least one steal in each of her four outings, including three thefts in Atlanta.

Natasha Howard (Seattle Storm) – @ Chicago Sky (DK: $11,200, FD: $8,300)

If you're going to spend heavily on one player, make it Howard. Her production is about to be sky high against the Sky, pun totally intended. She has picked up the slack, and then some, with MVP Breanna Stewart (Achilles') on the shelf. Howard already has a pair of double-doubles in five outings, averaging 18.2 PPG, 10.0 RPG and 1.6 blocked shots (BPG). Again, Chicago is a sieve defensively. Howard tied a season best with 21 points with nine rebounds in the first game in Chicago on June 1.

Azura Stevens (Dallas Wings) – @Washington Mystics (DK: $8,600, FD: $6,200)

Stevens was nailed to the pine early in the season due to a concussion and an injury, but he is making up for lost time lately. She is averaging a respectable 9.0 PPG and 6.0 RPG with 2.0 APG in two games off the bench. While her shooting hasn't been terribly pinpoint, hitting just 8-for-19 from the field, she has taken care of the ball with just two turnovers while swatting three shots in her 40 minutes. She should see more production against a shaky Mystics defense.
