Prop Bets: Dallas Wings VS Los Angeles Sparks 2025-08-20
WNBA Showdown: Dallas Wings vs. Los Angeles Sparks – A One-Way Street?
The Dallas Wings and Los Angeles Sparks are set for a 7:00 PM ET clash, and if the odds are any indication, this might be a night where the Sparks’ offense dials up the heat while the Wings’ defense… well, doesn’t. Let’s break it down with the precision of a Kelsey Plum three-pointer.
The Moneyline & Spread
- Los Angeles Sparks: -7.0 (FanDuel) / -7.5 (Fanatics) / -8.0 (DraftKings)
- Dallas Wings: +250 (FanDuel) / +270 (Fanatics) / +280 (DraftKings)
- Spread: Sparks -7.5 (1.91 juice across the board).
Translation? The Sparks are favored to win by at least a touchdown (American football reference for the cross-sport enthusiasts). Their implied probability of victory? A scorching 85%+, per the -7.0 line. Dallas, meanwhile, is a 3-to-1 underdog, which is about the same odds as me believing the Wings’ defense won’t get steamrolled.
The Total
- Over/Under: 182.5 (FanDuel) / 183.5 (Fanatics) / 183.0 (DraftKings).
- Take the OVER: Both teams are offensive fireworks. The Sparks are the WNBA’s best OVER team (24-9-1), and Dallas’ porous defense (12th in defensive rating) is like a sieve in a monsoon. Last meeting? A combined 193 points. Shrug emoji.
Prop Bets to Steal
1. Maddy Siegrist (Wings) Points Over 14.5 (-118, FanDuel):
The rookie is averaging 20.0 PPG since starting, shooting 64.9% from the field. The Sparks’ defense? The worst in the league. Siegrist’s implied points here (15.0) are conservative. Bet her for a triple-double… of points, laughs, and eye-rolls at the Wings’ defensive efforts.
- Kelsey Plum (Sparks) Assists Over 5.5 (-130, FanDuel):
Plum’s dishing out 6.1 APG this season. With the Spurs (er, Sparks) pushing pace, she’ll have time to rack up dimes. The Wings’ guards? They’ll be too busy chasing shadows.
- Dearica Hamby (Sparks) Rebounds Over 7.5 (-130, BetOnline.ag):
Hamby’s a rebounding machine, averaging 7.5 RPG. With the OVER likely, more misses = more boards.
- Paige Bueckers (Wings) Assists Under 5.5 (-136, FanDuel):
Bueckers is a star, but Dallas’ 4th-worst turnover percentage (per the docs) might force her into a rushed, low-assist night.
Why the Sparks Win
- Offense vs. Defense: The Sparks’ 4th-best offensive rating (last 10 games) meets the Wings’ 12th-best defensive rating. Math says Sparks + superior offense = victory.
- Playoff Pressure: LA trails Seattle for the 8th seed. Dallas? They’re building for 2026. Priorities, people.
Final Prediction
Los Angeles Sparks by 10, with Maddy Siegrist dropping 20+ points and the OVER blowing the over/under out of the water.
And remember, if you bet on the Wings, may the odds be ever in your favor… and also, like, never. 🏀🔥
