Wednesday’s Best WNBA Player Props
- Kahleah Copper (PHO) – Over Points + Rebounds
- Breanna Stewart (NYL) – Over Points + Rebounds
- Jessica Shepard (DAL) – Over Points + Rebounds + Assists
- Nneka Ogumike (LAS)- Over Points + Rebounds
2026 WNBA Betting Record: 48-26 (+16.68 units)
Kahleah Copper (PHO) – Over Points + Rebounds
The Dream has six more wins than the Mercury, but we’re going to roll with an extremely consistent Phoenix player in that matchup. Copper is having a standout season and has been on a scoring binge of late, averaging 24.1 points on 54.6% shooting over her last seven games. Copper has at least 25 points in three straight contests, and she’s facing a Dream squad that’s had its fair share of trouble defensively despite its winning mark.
Copper’s matchup Wednesday is an inviting one, as Atlanta is allowing league-high 48.4% shooting at home, and 36.8% three-point shooting overall. The Dream has been about middle of the pack in rebound prevention against guards, but Copper has been a solid rebounder for her position and has at least four boards in 15 of her 30 games to date.

Breanna Stewart (NYL) – Over Points + Rebounds
Stewart is another offensive powerhouse that’s been especially prolific lately, averaging 24.6 points on 48.7% shooting, including 40.9% from three-point range, over 35.7 minutes per contest across her last seven contests. The talented forward has been just as impressive on the boards, as she’s averaging 9.1 rebounds per game over that span and has three tallies of at least 11 boards in the sample.
The opposing Storm has been vulnerable defensively overall and has surrendered 48.0% shooting over the last three games, including a league-44.0% from three-point range. Seattle has also given up the second-most total rebounds per road game on the season (44.9), and the Storm is surrendering the second-most points (31.7) and the most rebounds (16.4) per game to forwards specifically. Given the matchup and Stewart’s recent body of work, this is a viable prop.

Jessica Shepard (DAL) – Over Points + Rebounds + Assists
Shepard is sometimes overshadowed by the exploits of her teammate Paige Bueckers, but the veteran center is having a fine season in her own right. Shepard checks into Wednesday averaging 14.7 points, 11.8 rebounds and 5.4 assists across 33.2 minutes per game, and she’s been even more productive of late. Shepard is averaging 34.3 points + rebounds + assists across her last 10 games, a sample where she’s shooting 57.0%.
The Mystics don’t exactly facilitate efficient shooting, but Washington is allowing 51.4% two-point shooting at home, as opposed to 46.2% on the road. Shepard essentially takes every shot from in front of the arc, so that metric, along with the fact Washington is surrendering three more total rebounds per game at home (41.0) compared to the road (38.0), keeps this prop in play.

Nneka Ogwumike (LAS ) – Over Points + Rebounds
Ogwumike is rebounding at her best rate since the 2016 season by pulling down 9.0 boards per contest, and she’s averaging a solid 17.4 points per game as well. The veteran center has actually been in even better form recently, supplying 29.8 points + rebounds while shooting 54.2%, including 46.3% from behind the arc, over her last nine games. She’s generated six double-doubles during that sample as well, further evidence of the upside she brings to the table.
The Sky has been a targetable team for scoring and rebounding all season long. Chicago is allowing the fourth-most points (90.7) and most rebounds (46.5) per home game, and Ogwumike has already collected tallies of 37 and 30 points + rebounds in two prior encounters with the Sky this season. Given her recent form and the on-paper matchup, Ogwumike is a solid bet for another busy night both on offense and on the boards.
