Let the WNBA All-Star festivities tip off!
This year’s midseason classic goes down at Gainbridge Fieldhouse, and while both squads are stacked with talent, one team stands out thanks to the leadership of its veteran leader.
Here are my top WNBA picks for Saturday, July 19, with tip-off set for 8:30 p.m. ET on ABC.
WNBA All-Star Game predictions
My best bet
Team Collier moneyline (-170 at BetMGM)
My analysis
Team Clark will be without their fearless leader in the lineup as Caitlin Clark is sidelined after re-aggravating a groin injury in Tuesday night's matchup against the Connecticut Sun.
Though Clark will be handling her captain duties from the bench, her team will make sure to put on a show in her absence. With familiar faces such as Aliyah Boston and Kelsey Mitchell on Team Clark's roster, they're well aware of what standard will be set and how to deliver the best performance possible.
Team Clark is loaded with seven-time WNBA All-Star A'ja Wilson, defending champ Sabrina Ionescu, standout Mystics rookie in Sonia Citron, Phoenix Mercury's leading scorer in Satou Sabally, and much more star power.
Offense won't be hard to come by for Clark's side, and as much as her team is rolling deep, I can't put up a front and deny that Napheesa Collier's roster is more stacked.
When it comes to building a well-rounded squad, Collier did what needed to be done.
Racking up on the boards: Angel Reese.
Lockdown defense: Courtney Williams.
Rookie sensation: Paige Bueckers.
Prolific shooters: Skylar Diggins, Breanna Stewart, Alyssa Thomas.
Safe to say, Collier's team building and scouting skills are unmatched.
Team Collier has covered all of her bases and is poised to give Team Clark the business on Saturday night.
Take the moneyline on Napheesa & Co. to come out firing as they showcase their dominance.
