Now Bueckers is coming off an ugly game where she only scored 10 points partially due to playing only 24 minutes (avg 32+\/game on season) in a 23-point blowout. <\/p>\n\n\n\n This game will be played at the pace that Bueckers prefers and that’s reflected in the total being set high at 178.5. We should also avoid a dreaded blowout with a spread of -2.5.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Kelsey Plum looks set to return from injury on Friday night, and Dearica Hamby has averaged only 5.7 potential assists per game with her active in 2026. <\/p>\n\n\n\n When the Sparks are at full strength with Plum, Ariel Atkins, Nneka Ogwumike and Erica Wheeler on the court, Hamby has fallen short of this line in 2\/3 games while landing on 3 exactly in her lone over. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Now Hamby has to deal with a Dallas Wings defense that has allowed 4th fewest assists and 5th fewest assists to opposing forwards. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Dallas has allowed the 3rd fewest assists in the mid-range and that area accounts for 45% of Hamby’s dimes. This game does have a near pick’em spread with a huge total and it should be played at a fast pace. <\/p>\n\n\n\n However, I’m banking on Plum’s return taking away assist opportunities from Hamby against an opponent who is stingy against her position.<\/p>\n\n\n\nWNBA Props Friday: Paige Bueckers Dallas Wings OVER 19.5 Points (-112)<\/strong><\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n
