Arike Ogunbowale UNDER 27.5 Points + Rebounds
Ogunbowale has consistently struggled to surpass this points + rebounds line, especially in recent performances. Over her last 15 games, she has gone under this line 67% of the time, averaging 25.7 points + rebounds, a notable dip from her usual production. This downward trend highlights a pattern of underperformance in this metric.
Moreover, her matchups against the Liberty further solidify this trend. In both meetings this season, she has gone under, averaging 25 points + rebounds against New York. The Liberty are known for their strong defensive schemes, particularly on perimeter players, which may explain Ogunbowale’s difficulties in these games. The Liberty’s defense tends to limit high-volume scorers like Ogunbowale, making this a challenging matchup for her.
Given the recent patterns and her history against the Liberty, tonight presents a strong opportunity for Arike to go under this line once again. Her scoring has been inconsistent, and unless she finds a way to adjust to the Liberty’s defense, the trend is likely to continue.
Rhyne Howard UNDER 3.5 3-Pointers Made
Howard has been on fire from deep over the past 10 days, surpassing this 3-point line in four consecutive games. She’s also been incredibly aggressive with her shot selection, attempting at least 13 three-pointers in each of her last three games, which are all-season highs. This hot streak has boosted her scoring, making her a key contributor from beyond the arc.
However, her next challenge is a tough one as she faces the Minnesota Lynx, who boast the league’s top-ranked 3-point defense. The Lynx have been particularly effective at limiting opposing shooters, and Howard has struggled against them this season. In three matchups against Minnesota, Howard has gone under this line each time, averaging just 1.33 made 3-pointers per game in those contests. The Lynx’s defense has consistently disrupted her rhythm, making it difficult for her to find success from long range.
This matchup will test whether Howard can maintain her hot hand or if the Lynx’s defense will once again contain her. Given her past struggles against Minnesota, this could be a challenging night for Howard to extend her streak from beyond the arc.
