Prop Bets: Seattle Storm VS Connecticut Sun 2025-07-28
Seattle Storm vs. Connecticut Sun WNBA Matchup Prediction: A Comedy of Errors (With a Side of Dominance)
The Seattle Storm (-340) are favored to stomp the Connecticut Sun (4-20) like a toddler on a stress ball. Let’s break this down with the precision of a NASA engineer calculating how many times Nneka Ogwumike will dominate Tina Charles tonight.
Key Stats to Know:
- The Storm score 79.9 PPG, which is 7.6 points fewer than the Sun allow (87.5). Math checks out.
- The Sun score 74.2 PPG, which is only 3.1 points less than what the Storm give up (77.3). So, Sun offense: “We’re not bad, just… unambitious.”
- Ogwumike (17.1 PPG, 7.2 RPG) vs. Charles (16.3 PPG, 5.8 RPG): Think of it as a dunk contest between two mimes.
- The total is set at 156.5 points. If you like low-scoring games where someone accidentally knocks the ball into the stands, bet the UNDER.
Player Props to Bet Like a Degenerate:
1. Nneka Ogwumike Double-Double (+360 at FanDuel): She’s basically a guaranteed double-double machine. Bet her like you bet your ex will text you “I miss you” after a breakup.
2. Erica Wheeler 3-Pointers Over 1.5 (-122 at DraftKings): The Storm’s star hits 1.7 threes per game. This is a sure thing, like betting the sun will rise tomorrow… if the sun had a 1.7% chance of rising.
3. Tina Charles First Team Basket (+470 at FanDuel): The Sun need her to kickstart their offense. Good luck—Connecticut’s first basket might as well be the first step toward colonizing Mars.
4. Skylar Diggins-Smith Assists Over 5.5 (-132 at FanDuel): She dishes 5.6 assists per game. This is the WNBA’s version of betting on a clock to tick.
Why the Storm Win:
Because the Sun have the offensive firepower of a wet spaghetti noodle. Seattle’s defense holds Connecticut to their 74.2-PPG average, while Ogwumike drops 20+ and 10+ to make it a laughing matter.
Final Score Prediction:
Seattle Storm 78, Connecticut Sun 62. The Sun will thank the Storm for not making more threes… and the Storm will thank the Sun for not showing up.
Where to Watch: ESPN3, NBCS-BOS, or wherever they film The Office reboot with sad paper employees.
Final Thought: If the Sun win, the universe will have to rewrite the laws of physics. Stick with the Storm and enjoy the show—this is basketball’s version of a Netflix docuseries where the underdog literally has zero chance.
