Prop Bets: Indiana Fever VS Connecticut Sun 2025-07-15
Humorous Prediction: Indiana Fever vs. Connecticut Sun (July 16, 2025)
The Indiana Fever, led by the indomitable Caitlin Clark, are about to make the Connecticut Sun feel like they’ve been left in the oven on "sport mode." With the Sun missing their best player (Marina Mabrey, knee injury) and having lost all five starters from last year’s team, this is less of a game and more of a WNBA version of The Hangover.
Key Stats & Odds:
- Spread: Indiana -15.0 (Fever -15.5 at BetRivers), Connecticut +15.0.
- Moneyline: Fever -107 (implied probability: 51.2%), Sun +900 (9.7%).
- Total: 166.5 points (Over/Under).
Player Props to Mock:
1. Caitlin Clark Assists: Over 8.5 (-120 at DraftKings). She’s averaging 9.0 assists per game, so this is like betting on gravity—inevitable, but please don’t let her hit 9.5 and make us eat our words.
2. Clark Triple-Double: +2600 (Bovada). A 3.3% chance to watch her become the first WNBA player to triple-double since… well, ever. Bet it for the glory, not the profit.
3. Aliyah Boston Double-Double: +140 (FanDuel). A safer bet for her to dominate the glass, though the Sun’s frontcourt might crumble like a poorly stacked Jenga tower.
Why the Fever Will Win (with Sarcasm):
The Sun’s net rating is dead last, while the Fever’s is third. The Fever’s net rating is third. The Sun’s is last. It’s like comparing a luxury yacht to a leaky canoe. Oh, and Caitlin Clark? She’s averaging 9.0 assists despite missing time with injuries. The Sun’s young guns (Leïla Lacan, Aneesah Morrow) have promise, but promise doesn’t beat a fully functional, net-positive machine.
Underdog Fun Fact:
Bet on Olivia Nelson-Ododa’s double-double (+650 at FanDuel) if you really want to feel the sting of rooting for a team that’s 3-20 this season. It’s the WNBA’s version of buying a lottery ticket—except the odds are worse.
Final Verdict:
The Fever are a -15.5 favorite for a reason. Bet on them to win by 20+ points and mock the Sun’s "double-digit scoring streak" (Rivers’ stat line: 5/5, 0/10). This game is a roast, and the Sun are the target.
“If the Sun lose by more than 15, they should just retire their jerseys and start a WNBA version of the Harlem Globetrotters.” — Peter Dewey, probably.
