The WNBA Commissioner’s Cup Final pits the two best franchises of the decade against each other, a rematch on many levels. But the Las Vegas Aces announcing four-time MVP A’ja Wilson will miss the game turns Las Vegas from a slight underdog into a three-bucket underdog to the New York Liberty.
My Aces vs. Liberty predictions and these WNBA picks expect New York to capitalize on this opportunity on Tuesday, June 30.
Aces vs Liberty prediction
Aces vs Liberty best bet: Liberty -6.5 (-110)
Sitting A’ja Wilson due to an ankle injury makes sense despite this being the Commissioner’s Cup final. While the Las Vegas Aces would relish the additional $20,000 each player on the winning team receives, this game does not count in the WNBA standings.
But Wilson effectively is the Aces’ offense, her 32.8% usage rate just short of 10 percentage points higher than the next highest rate in the rotation.
Without Wilson, Las Vegas’s No. 1 offensive rating should stall against the New York Liberty tonight.
COVERS INTEL: A’ja Wilson is also Las Vegas’s best defender, accounting for double the defensive win shares of anyone else on the roster this season.Aces vs Liberty same-game parlay
Without Wilson’s defense, the New York Liberty may live in the paint tonight, led by Jonquel Jones and Breanna Stewart. The idea of them both finding clean looks at the rim would terrify any opponent and should make for a relatively high-scoring game, one then raised further by Las Vegas desperation late.
Aces vs Liberty SGP
- Liberty -6.5
- Over 173.5
- Jackie Young Over 19.5 points
Aces vs Liberty player prop pick
Jackie Young Over 19.5 points (+102)
Among the Aces’ true rotation, Jackie Young’s usage rate of 23.1% is closest to Wilson’s prolific 32.8%, and given her questionable defense, the only way for Young to justify such usage is to indeed score.
Even with Wilson in the lineup, Young has cleared this prop in four of her last five games, that exception coming by the mere hook.
- Best bet: 8-6, -0.15 units
- SGP: 1-12, -8.9 units
